so sorry to hear of the passing of your father (grandfather) Garth is definitely missed by all the staff at Humpty's on MacLeod Trail where he was certainly one of our favorite regular customers.

David, Lewis & Delbert,

We were sorry to hear that your Dad has passed away. Take comfort in the fact that he is no longer suffering. Remember the good times you had together (as Ed and I did with your parents) and time will heal. Love, Vicky & Ed
