The Hutchings and McKay families would like to thank the relatives, friends and co-workers who visited, brought food sent cards, flowers, messages and phoned.

Special thanks to Val’s co-workers and friends in the endo-suite, SPD, and the “coffee group” at Western Memorial Regional Hospital. The many, many people who expressed how much they liked Val was comforting to us. Val was easy to take to and hard to dislike. She will be greatly missed.

Thank you to Rev. Ota for letting us say goodbye to Val the way we wanted to.

Love and thanks from husband Reg, son Dean (Fran), daughter Janet (Randy), mom Bella, sisters Marie, Jackie and Joy.
