“I was so sorry to hear about Al’s passing.
Having shared some moments with him on the curling scene, played with and against on the ice, and over the odd libation, he will be missed. He had always been active participant on all his endeavours and had his own way of being a part of any group.

Family of Al Forsythe
“It is with great sadness that I send along this wee note following the passing of your dear Father. Although your Dad lived a full life over his 71 years he was chosen to leave family and friends far too soon. Very little can be said to ease the loss of some one of such value and love as one\'s Father and only those who cross this milestone can know such loss. However now that your Dad is in God\'s hands he has left you with many memories of which never tarnish nor do they grow old. They are yours unchanged and forever. Each of you will remember those memories and keep them always near to your hearts until such time as you share life again with your Dad in heaven. May God Bless your Dad and although there will be a missing link in your lives now God over time will give you the strength to move on with life. Sincerely, Phil George”

Sorry about the passing Tim of your Dad
“Hi Tim, I am truly sorry to hear of the passing of your Dad, as that is a real hard one to have to deal with. I guess we all get our go at moving on and out of this world at some point in time, but it is never something one looks forward to for sure. I had met your Dad at Lawson\'s and he was out at my place one time and he was a really nice guy. No doubt he will be missed. I send my sincere condolences Tim to you and your family. .....
