Dear Jimmy, Brother, Bill, Dennis, and Winnie, and all your families,
I am so sorry to hear about Katherine. Even though she had a great long life, and must have missed Freddie so much, it's never easy to lose a parent. My heart goes out to you all. Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to attend the visiting hours or funeral, but please know you are in my thoughts and prayers. I'll let Anita and Phil, Gerry and Betty, and Jannie know that sadly another chapter has closed in Sandwich.
With love, Valerie Caron and family.
