Dear and Beloved family of Lorne-Ray, Elaine, Joan, Trudy, Alma and all in your families. So very sorry for you that you have lost your father and grandfather, especially so short a time after your mom’s passing. God bless all the special times you each have been able to share and the memories that you carry close to your hearts. We appreciated getting to know Lorne and all the stories he shared. We will remember him with fond connections as the “related through marriage” westerners. He and Jessie arrived stylishly in his red sports car and we were able to enjoy many good visits with them at Ray’s home as well as at ours. Our thoughts, prayers and love are with you all.
