On Behalf of myself and my family, we send our deepest condolences to Junnie's family. Junnie has been a long standing friend and helper to me at the Sundance and fasts. He was also a great friend to my late Brother Joey Harlow, and Junnie will be so deeply missed. One of his most special gifts, is that he held no judgement. A teaching for us all. Junnie and all of his family will be in our prayers.

My deepest condolences to the Meuse Family, Junnie was a wonderful man who had a heart of gold. He helped so many people including myself when we were in need. He did so without hesitation and words could never express the loss for our Mi'kmaq people for losing such a wonderful man! He was an inspiration of hope and laughter! My prayers are with the family!
