    Dave & Family — I first met your dad (Aubrey) when he arrived at Country Moments a few years back and soon found out that he was also an entertainer and soon had him playing his harmonica and singing (You Are My Sunshine) with our band. I cherished my time and stories with him. Sorry for your loss
    Rest In Peace dear friend

    I met Mr. Percival when I was working during the summer of 85 with the MTO. We spent the season together but our friendship seem to endure years later and he taught me many things. I remember his humour the most during this time, I was a young kid and he had nothing but patience with any of us and it took lots as I remember. He was a true gentleman on every front. I’m sad to see his passing . RIP Sir… condolences to the family and all that had the pleasure to meet and talk with him.

    I have such great memories of Aub and loved to talk with him. He had great stories of his, my dads and my uncles exploits as younger men. He always made me laugh. Being at the hunt camp with him and my dad and Sam just put a smile on my face watching and listening to them. I will miss Aub. He was a good man and great friend to my Dad and uncles and our family.

    To Susan and family,

    My heart and prayers go out to you and your family during this difficult time… I have worked with Susan for many years and I am certain Aubrey was an wonderful man, as Susan is an exceptional, kind and compassionate soul. I believe Percival is now in God’s hands, reunited with those who love him. Rest in peace Mr Aubrey Percival.

    Dave: The battle is over for Aub and he is with the love of his life. I am so happy that Aub made Country Moments his home so many years ago and he was able to have the love and care of Audrey until the end. We loved his smile, sense of humour and of course his stories. And Aub had stories.!!
    Aub made Country Moments very special indeed.

    Please share my condolence with your family and sister.

    Rick and I are thinking of you today,

    RIP Mr. Aubrey Percival.
