Marlene, Adam & family.
It is with heavy heart hearing your dear man has left this earth.
Seeing the posted photos, especially his 60th tells me there was more to the man behind that infectious smile – what a character.
His love and the memories you shared will keep him with you always. ❤️ 🙏

So sorry to hear of the death of Sam. I always called him the mayor of Winchelsea when I would see him at the grocery store. He always had a smile on his face and some little story to tell. He will be missed.

Dear Marlene, Diane and Family,
My Dad , Bill Allen, who lives with us now in London would like to send you his sincere condolences. Dad remembers how often Sanford would help him on the farm whenever he needed someone. Particularly we remember when Dad hurt his back, and Sanford came to the rescue milking the cows.
Happy memories come forward of playing cards together with you both and Mom, Marlene.
May you feel comforted and feel that peace beyond understanding.
Sincerely Bill Allen and Joan Mitchell (nee Allen)
