    We will always remember Red as a very caring individual who had a kind word for everyone he came in contact with. We admired him greatly for the love and dedication that he showed for his wife Marlene during her final years at the Villa. He will be missed.

    It is with great sadness I can-not be with my family to celebrate our Dads life
    I will always remember the love and dedication my father had in regards to my Mom Marlyne
    he was amazing to be with her everyday although she was not aware
    I will miss his voice saying……”hell-o Whitehorse” every week when I called him just to say hi
    He will be missed.

    Uncle Red was always a cheer to see and be around. Seeing these pictures here reminds me of how much I’ll miss him and Aunt Marlene. They never missed the opportunity to support grandpa in his playful hazing of us. My condolences to his family at this time. Darcy

    To Mike, Debbie and Sandra and families:
    Remember I had a dream about your Mother last year. I also had a dream about your Father. He showed me how he moved down Richmond Street from another place (probably Exeter) and then up Richmond street. I suspect that this may have been when he was going to the hospital. He told me he was going home.

    My thoughts are with you; my sons and I will be donating to the Heart and Stroke fund.

    Love, Sharon.

    Sandi, Mike and Families
    I was saddened to read of Red’s passing. I have missed him at the Villa. He was such a big part of the place. I know he was happy to move to London to be near you, Mike. Although you will no doubt miss him, take comfort in knowing he is now reunited with his beloved Marene.

    Take Care,
    Trudy Hodgins
