Barb's Dad, the memories we have of him, my sister Dee and I being safely brought from Ottawa to Chateguay and back. He was kind, gentle and was there for so many moments during the hot summer days for Barb, Carole and Susan. I thank you for being so sweet to all of us and you too Viviene.

TO ALL MEMBERS OF IAN'S FAMILY:
I'm so sorry to read about your loss. I lived near to your family home in Nitro, QC and I have beautiful memories of those times. Ian was often talked about in stories from my brother Bernie Turcotte (Voyageur Colonial days). Bernie passed away last November and the pain of losing a loving family member is hard to bear. May the memories sustain you through your terrible hurt. My sympathy & Prayers are with all of you.
