John and Family, Our Deepest Sympathy to all of you on the loss of Alberta. Wishing you all peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your heart. And in the words of Winnie the Pooh; "If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together...there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think, but the most important thing is, even if we're apart... I'll always be with you." May you now take comfort in knowing an angel is watching over you.
