Diane, Wendy, Glenn and Debbie;
I just learned of Heinz's passing. I'm so shocked and so so sorry to hear this terribly sad news. Wendy, your dad was like a father to me growing up. I will never forget him or the love your family shared with me. My deepest sympathies. I wish I would have known about his celebration of life in Sherwood Park; I wouldn't have missed it for anything.
