Susan, Joan, Carol & families;
My sincere sympathy in the loss of your dear Father. I had many enjoyable visits with your Dad (& Mom) at the farm over several years as they were very valued customers. Your Dad was always eager to share his wisdom and I was always eager to soak it in! He certainly was a knowledgable man whom I respected deeply. Another thing I will always remember about both your parents is how incredibly proud they were of their entire family and all of your accomplishments. You all remain in my thoughts and prayers as you grieve but also celebrate your Dad and his reunion with your wonderful Mom.

Thinking of you all, during this difficult time. Such a gentleman he was. Always that little smile.
Rest in peace.
Cliff and Elaine
Dear Susan, Joan and Carol.
Cliff always enjoyed talking to your dad. He would come home and make himself some notes or ask me to google this or that on things they had discussed. Conversations often relating to personal health and care and so it doesn’t surprise me that some of the family are in the health and wellness industry.
Joan, such a loving commitment to have dad in your home and under your care for the last few years. Susan, how special that you are able to officiate at your dad’s service. Sincere sympathy to all the family.
Janice
Carol, Joan, Susan & family

Our condolence to you all
Mary Austin
Joan, you always spoke of your Dad with love and kindness and the photos that you were kind enough to share showed the love that he felt for his family. I can only imagine him through words and pictures, but suspect that he was more than even I could imagine. It is never easy to lose a loved one as you well know…and despite knowing that death would be an eventuality, it always comes as a shock to know that you will never see them again.
Please accept my condolences…
Doreen and Gord Jones

Dear Joan and Family – Your father was so blessed in his life. Joan as his daughter you made him so comfortable and loved – I’m sure he was so proud and thankful for you bringing him into your home and caring for him the way you and your family did. You were his angel on earth. You will miss him but he is now out of pain and ready for his next journey. Thinking of you.
