Condolences & Memories (7 entries)

  • Dear Aunty Irene and Donnie, My sincere condolences on Uncle Eddie's very sad passing. He was such a sweetheart and I have always thought so well of him and even though he never really was my uncle, I could just never let go of the endearment established in childhood. That's how he made me feel and that's how I felt towards him: like we were extended family. He will be missed, especially by my Dad, his long-time friend. With deepest sympathy, Allyson Domanski and family in Ottawa - Posted by: Allyson Domanski (Family friend) on: Jan 28, 2015
