    Dorothy I am sure you remember me from Robinsons. Laurie. whose sister lives across the road from your uncle in Grand Valley. I am so sorry to hear of your husbands passing. All we can do is remember the good times of which i am sure you had many and the love that comes with those years of marriage. I will always remember you both with love. We had many chats at Robinsons my friend. xo

    My thoughts and prayers are with you Pat and your family during this time of sadness with the passing of your Father. As time goes by memories that you created throughout the years will be regenerated in your heart, special moments you shared will be remembered with joy and the pictures that you have in your mind will always be there. These memories and pictures never leave us keeping those we have loved and lost with us always.
    God Bless,
    Jean
