Eva, I am sorry to hear of the passing of your husband. My dad was John McBryan (Mac) Russell of Thedford, Ontario. His mother was Mary McBryan. Having just read the two entries in this guestbook, I would say that your husband was a lot of fun. I wish I'd had the pleasure of knowing him. My sympathy to you and your family.

Dear Auntie Eva,
We feel fortunate that we spent time with you and Uncle John this past summer. During all the times we have gotten together, we enjoyed listening to yours and Uncle John's life stories but, we especially enjoyed the stories about both your lives in Edmonton back in the 30's, 40's, and 50's. We will miss talking with Uncle John on the phone and giggling at his jokes. The saving grace is we will still be able to visit with you and think about you and all the good times you and Uncle John have shared.

Thanks for lots of great memories Uncle John. We will miss you but, please know you will still be in our hearts and thoughts.
Love, Cheryl and Ross
