Jane, Nancy and families:
I am truly sorry to read about your Mother&&single&&s passing . There are many wonderful memories to be treasured . You must be commended for looking after her needs these last few years and Ruth must have been elated to have been included in the Gibson Reunion this past summer.
I, personally, have many fond memories of happy times in Listowel and at the farm in Walton. The twins always gave their sister a
hard time and she took all the joking in good fun. Unfortunately ,I am unable to get to the wake or funeral , but I certainly wish to express my sincere condolences.
