Gilbert MURRAY

Dear Betty, and family,
We wish to extend our sincere condolences for your loss. (We were out of town and could not attend the services.)
Phil had many pleasant talks and laughs with Gil on our street corner.
We will remember you and Gil.
Take care,
Your Avonlea neighbours,
Phil & Anna Zrymiak.

I just was informed today of Gib's passing. My prayers and sympathy to Betty and family. I will remember Gib at my A.M. Mass tomorrow - Wed. Aug. 1st.

You have my sympathies on the passing of Uncle Gib. Reeading the obituary evoked many childhood memories for me. I have brief memories of you living in Sarnia and many of you living in Kitchener and Waterloo. I remember your many swimming hours at early mornings. I remember visiting past midnight on Christmas Eve contravening the stroke of midnight when all good children sjould be in bed for Santa to arrive. I remember marvelling at hearing about Laurier's bussiness program and again when uncle Gib worked so hard that he went to university right through every summer. (For a school aged kid to think that another student - albeit an adult -to not have the summer off school was unthinkable. I remember when you moived so far away, all the way to Ottawa and Christmas visits became fewer. I remember visiting in Ottawa when I was recently married. I remember a welcoming family inspiring orhers that difficulties could be overcome.
