My thoughts are with all of you. I will always remember your Dad and Mom for all the travelling, parties and all in all, fun times they shared with my parents and their seaforth gang – from super bowl parties to bowling to good times in the Caribbean. Cherish the wonderful memories. In deepest sympathy, Jill Muir
Mel was a very good son, and a good brother to me and his other siblings. He was a caring and compassionate man and well liked in our small community. He remained fond of New Brunswick and frequently returned to visit family, friends and particularly, to have some (down home) cooking, lobster, corn on the cob, passé pierre and college bread, oysters on the shell were his favorites. We all loved our big brother and were proud of his accomplishments and the fact that he never forgot his roots. I have missed talking to him, as he had a sense of humor and loved to discuss current news items. Mel was always a sociable person and loved people. I am saddened by his passing and the thought that we all lived so far apart. I did spend a nice few days with Jackie and Mel in Moncton, having come from California. Love you, Leopold. You are a great guy. May you rest in peace.
Your sister, Jacqueline
We&&single&&re thinking of you all at this time and wishing you comfort.
Our sincere sympathy Leanne to you and your families
