THE HEART HAS IT’S OWN MEMORY,
like the mind, and in it are
enshrined the precious keepsakes of life.

Thank you for being there for me !

Chère Claudie,

Nous avions perdu contact pendant plusieurs années et le hasard a permis que l'on se croise le 28 mars, vol du retour de Fort Lauderdale à Montréal . Comme j’ai été heureuse de vous revoir tous deux. De plus je dis merci d’avoir eu l’opportunité de lui communiquer toute ma reconnaissance ce jour là.

Je te souhaite bon courage et j’espère que nous aurons l’occasion de se voir à nouveau.

Dear Claudie,
The news of Matthew has saddened us deeply and we share with you the loss with his departure. His "mischievous" sense of humour was a delight to us and we will miss him dearly.
Our love and best wishes,
Cathie & Vincent Cox
