Our deepest condolences to you, Theresa, and your family. I am sure you feel the loss of your father very deeply. I have many good memories of visiting Aunt Rita and Uncle Wilfred at the farm as a child and remember Uncle Wilfred as a very kind and welcoming man who always took the time to chat with the "kids." I hope your many wonderful and cherished memories will help you smile through your tears.

Sincerely,
Kim (Fairbairn) and Mike Weber

We were so sad to hear about Uncle Wilfred's passing. Trips to the farm to visit Aunt Rita and Uncle Wilfred are cherished childhood memories that I will always hold dear to my heart.

When Aunt Rita passed away, Uncle Wilfred told us that he didn't just lose his wife, but he lost his dearest friend. A true partner who he had spent every single day with. I'm sure they are together again at last.

Our sincere condolences to you, Theresa and your family as well.
