    To The Vanstone Family
    Our condolences are sent to your family at this time.
    Verdun was very helpful to us when we built our house in Saltford (1999).
    He would drive by, stop and have a chat. He also supplied us with loads of gravel. Such good memories.
    Regards
    John and Connie Harrison
