We offer our sincere condolences. At least Velma is painfree & reunited with Don. Sorry we are leaving town but our prayers are with you.
Through this office I was fortunate to get to know your mother/grandmother. She was a delightful lady and she shared many interesting memories with me. We discovered we had common ground in that her grandson, Kyle, and my children attended LPPearson School for the Arts here in London and like Kyle, my daughters are both actors. She was always so polite and proper, I always enjoyed our little chats. Some people in life stand out, she was one of them.
My sincere condolences for your loss.
