There are no words that seem adequate enough to say thank you to everyone who expressed their sympathy during the loss of my beloved husband, father, grandfather and brother. He was a wonderful person and through the memories that he gave each of us, he will live on forever in our hearts. We would like to let everyone know that the donations we received will be going Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Parish Church and the Canadian Lung Association.
