Many many good memories of your Dad from growing up on the 13th of McKillop. He was quick to take his turn driving us around on Halloween night, and always had a positive attitude. He brought a lot of joy to all who knew him. You will have many memories and stories to share over the few months. Sincerely Ray and Linda McNichol
