I have many fond memories with Lori and her family. I'll always remember the summer her family took me on vacation with them as we drove across Canada. There were many laughs shared on this trip. It's something I will always remember when I think of him. I will always remember "take out Fridays" at the house. He was a wonderful man who will be greatly missed. Lori, you and your family will remain in my thoughts and prayers. I love you all! - Posted by: Shannon Wood (Friend of Lori) on: Jan 09, 2018

I have many fond memories of Mr. Parke, but what I will remember most is his smile and the way it lit up his entire face. My heart and prayers go out to the entire Parke family as they go through this difficult time. To Barbara, Darcy, Paula, and Lori - my memories of Victor are always lovingly entwined with all of you. As children, playing at your house in Winnipeg. As adults, knowing that warm and welcoming smile was always ready regardless of how much time had passed. I'm grateful that our families never drifted. My deepest condolences. Love, Sheree - Posted by: Sheree Yusishen () on: Jan 09, 2018
