Sorry to hear of Ray’s passing. It is never an easy time to loose a family member. Please accept our sympathy. I also remember Rose & Harvey, passing their farm on my way to school.
We lost mom (Laura) Sillery Oct 31/09 and our brother Doug. this past Sept.
I am a neighbour from away back, the former Dorcas Sillery (Wein) widowed and now Majury of 12 years living in Southampton with my husband Glen.
Fond memories.

Dear Ivan, Carol, Ted and families,
We were so sorry to hear of Ray’s passing. Though it has been such a long time since we’ve been up to Canada, please know that the memories of those times are fondly kept close in my heart. I remember Ray as such a kind and gentle man. Mom always loved to show us the pictures of Ivan, Ray, Nola and herself on the farm in Exeter…she has such wonderful memories of her summer visits there.
Please know that we are praying for you all
In sympathy,
Barb Kopas and family

Ivan, Carol and Teddy, We were so sorry to hear of Ray’s death. Mom told us of your call to her today with the news. All our prayers go out to your whole family. I brought Mom up to see the pictures on this page and she was so glad she could see them. She, of course, also sends her love and her prayers as well and reminisced fondly of her visits to Exeter. In sympathy, Gail (Peticolas) Pfeiffer and Beth Peticolas too.
