Hello and our sincere condolences to all.
This form of message may turn out to be unnecessary as I may still be able to make it to Zurich on Saturday.
Some of you may be aware that I am in the Wine and Spirits distribution business and my company is involved in this weekends trade show in London. Because of this and my inability so far, to pull in enough people I may not be able to attend.
I want to and I know I should be there, as I liked Gerry and Frank very much and I think the feeling was mutual.
I remember their visits to Grand Bend to see my family were always considered an ‘occasion’ by Mary, Mona, and Doris.
Such was the feeling between them. Of course you know this even better than I.
The last time I saw Gerry was the day she dropped off a picture to our house in Grand Bend. Poor memory that I have, I can not recall which of the sisters was the driver but it was very thoughtful of her to do so.
Barbara and Anne, if I am unable to attend please be aware my thoughts are with you.
Best wishes to all.
Kyle and Julie Harrison
