Dear Mrs. Day, Kathy, Stuart, and Family.
I am so sad to hear of Ken's passing. When I look through my fathers back yard, you are all still there.That is always the Day's House to me. I am feeling your pain. I Loved your father, and I loved his laugh. You are the best friends.

Mrs. Day my dad just called me today saying Mr. Day passed away. Our family just wanted to say how sorry we are and that you are okay. Seeing his picture brought back many fond memories when I was growing up. I hope you are well and we will pray for you. Take Care, Mike Campbell and family

Dear Ollie and family,
We were deeply saddened to learn of Ken's passing. We appreciated very much your friendship when we lived in Tsawwassen and the opportuniies we have had to visit since then. The Christmas e-mails have also allowed us to keep in touch. Our thoughts will be of you during this next week. May your faith comfort and sustain you over the coming months. Marilyn and Harold
