Deepest condolences from Dave & I on the loss of your mom & grandmother. Your mom & dad were very special people indeed & now they are reunited once again. Take care
Jane, please accept my sympathies on the loss of your mom. I first met Dorothy at the old Macassa office in 1982 and she was such a beautiful and lovely person with a sincere and warm smile. And your dad and I played on the same Oldtimers ball team for many years. After your parents retired, it was always so nice to chat on the street and have updates on their lives. Janie, they were so proud that their eyes sparkled when they talked of you, Don and Sean and your family. RIP Dorothy.
I will miss all the letters and phone conversations we had talking about times past in Chaput Hughes and discussing our close family ties and family tree. It was always fun to get together whenever I was back for a visit. Jo, Clint and Family
