The family would like to express their heartfelt thanks to the staff at Villa Carital for their exceptional care, kindness and comfort provided. A "Celebration of Life" will be held at Ocean View Burial Park, 4000 Imperial Street, Burnaby, BC on Monday, September 28, 2015 at 1:00 p.m. Family and friends are welcome to attend.
