Dad
It has been just over a week since you left us. I have a hole in my heart that will not be fixed. I am truly happier knowing you are no longer in any pain and that you are now with Mom. I know you are cause when I saw the rabbit(s) D told me this was so.
I miss you so very much and with this hurt came the hurt back again of missing Mom. Be happy with her again. I love you

Uncle Don,
I will never forget your parking spot in front of my house, with your old FORD truck. I will never forget how much you made me and Meghan laugh when we were kids playing in your backyard!
You are a wonderful man and will truly be missed. Rest in Peace andfind your happiness with Aunt Alice :)

Dear Pompa
I only met you once at Meghan and Eric's wedding .. however the one thing I remember best of you is when you were leaving you said "bye everyone , it was great for YOU to meet ME" I thought it was hilarious and it turned out to be so true.
You were a great man and raised your family well.
I promise to be a great friend to your family and always be there for them when in need.
My greatest sympathies to Sandra and my dear friend Meghan

Dear Alicia and family,
I am heartbroken at the loss of your grandfather (Pompa) and the sadness you are experiencing, and I know that he will be missed by you and many others.
Please be kind to yourself during this sad time, and I pray for the time when your sadness and grief is gently replaced by smiles and pleasant memories. You were truly blessed to have had your Pompa in your life as a parent and a grandparent, a role model and a friend.
I am here for anything you need, please call, even if you just need a shoulder to cry on or ear for listening. You and your family are in my prayers and thoughts.
With love and comfort,

I know that you and I haven't been very close the last few years, mostly because I moved to Edmonton, but you have been a part of me my whole life. I remember all the great times we had together, eating ice cream, watching cartoons, etc... You were as much of a kid as I was then. You were always there with big hugs and kisses for me. You always made everything fun, and that is probably the biggest thing that I will take from you. I love you very much and the world just got a little bit worse because your gone.

From the very first day I was born until the day you left this world I knew that without a doubt you loved me more than words could ever say Pompa. No matter how long we went without saying a word or how far away we were from each other nothing could ever take that away. You always had the biggest and best hugs for me and I will miss those for eternity. I miss you so much it hurts my heart and soul but I do know that you are in a pain free place sippin on some delicious drinks with Granny. Knowing that you and Granny are together again is one of the best feelings :) Visit me in my dreams whenever you can and bring Granny with you too....I love you to the moon and back Pompa, I'll forever hear the words " Hey there kiddo " play in my head, how I wish I could hear those words from you one more time. Love you always and forever Pompa....Love your Grand-Daughter, Alicia
This kiss is forever...

There are no words to discribe how life will be without you in it! You have been such an amazing and comforting presence throughout my life. As a child i have wonderful memories of Christmas Day's at your house on Cedarwood, and you taking me to the Super Ex........but when Granny passed you and I became so much closer. You and i made so many lasting memories during the last 14 years that i will forever cherish in my mind and my heart.
The world lost a wonderful father and great-grandfather but most of all it lost the one and only "Pompa"
R.I.P Pompa... I love you with all of my heart....xoxo forever

Pompa, saying goodbye is the hardest thing to do. You were an amazing Pompa, always full of laughter and joy when you saw us, always with a smile and a witty remark of some sort, I will hold you near and dear to my heart forever. You are now at peace, back with the love of your life and so many others who have been waiting for you. I will miss you always and never stop thinking of you. I'm grateful you got to meet Alex and hold him close to you
I love you Pompa

Donna and Ellwyn we shared many laughs and drinks with Donnie over the years. His quick one liners are one thing I will always remember. To the Maitland family I know he loved all of you in his own special way. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him. Our deepest sympathies.

All the memories I have of us together will always be near and dear.
Dad you are at peace now and for that I am grateful, also you are now with Mom, Grannie, Louise and the rest of your loved ones.

You are the best Father that anyone could ever ask for.

Without you Dad this world just got so different for me. I know that your pain has ended and you are now at peace, and with Mom, and many other loved ones. I will hold on to the precious memories, and keep you forever in my heart. You told me on Thursday that if I ever needed you that you would be there, and I believe you will. Thank you for all you said Thursday night as well. I miss you like crazy "Papee"
