David Floody
Ron and Glenda, and all Lindenfield family members in Exeter and surrounding areas:
David and Eileen Floody of Tofino British Columbia have many happy memories of Christmases and summer holidays spent with Arn and Verlyn, and beloved cousins Sue, Ron, Rob and Debbie. Still remember Arn waiting on customers at Lindenfield’s Hardware those summers, and keeping me, David, and the cousins in line as we raced around the store having our childhood fun.
David’s fondest memories are of opening our many presents under the Christmas tree at the big yellow brick Lindenfield house, with the whole family around him. Then the incredible and sumptuous Christmas dinner that followed. A family Christmas in the best sense of the term. We knew we were loved. God bless you Arn. You are truly missed. David and Eileen Floody, Tofino BC.
