So sorry to hear of your dad’s passing Bill & Sherry. Our thoughts are with you at this sad time.
Joan and Gang..I share your loss..You being my favourite Aunt..Bill was my favourite Uncle..er..only memorable one anyway.. First memory of Bill was in Moose Jaw..He was going to teach me to box..One thing I learned from that experience is it hurts to get hit when your gloves are down..I will always treasure the short times we have had together..Sorry I will be unable to attend..But be rest assured I will pray for you and Bill with reflections this Saturday..Love you Auntie…
Joan I am so sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. The loss of a spouse is a pain that no one can understand for it spans so many memories shared, and life events and secrets between 2 people bound together with love. It leaves a void that will never be filled but that time does help to heal. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family..
