    We are all thinking of your family today and remembering the good times we have shared. Do you remember the time Dad concocted a mixture of horse linament and other unknown horse medicines into a jar for your Mother’s knees. I am not sure that she ever actually used it but she brought it out many times. How did we know in 1965 that a group of men and their families from so many different backgrounds would form a bond as strong as the one that our parents have had.
    Please give our best regards to Don. The weather is just too hot for Mom to come but she has been telling us stories all morning about the good times she remembers with your Mom and Dad.
    Someone once told me that memories are a way of saying thank you for the good times you have had in your life. Your lovely Mother has given all of us lots of memories! We say thank you as she looks down from above
    Sincerely,
    Maryon, Hugh, Suzanne and all the Gang

    Please accept our deepest sympathies. I’ll always remember Mrs. Bowman….her humour, her kindness and her compassion. It was wonderful growing up with the Bowman family as neighbours…I grieve for your loss.

    Don, Jane and Family
    I was so sorry to hear of the passing of Ev, I didn’t realize she had been ill and I remember talking to her the last time when she was moving into her new place and she was excited because it would be so much easier for her and Don. I will really miss her at our Sorority
    Conventions she was such an inspiration to me and others
    we really had some good times over the years and there are a lot of good memories I will cherish forever.Please
    accept my condolences and my prayers are with you all.
    Love Carol Quantrill ( Sorority Sister)
