Sylvia: Your father was one great guy! I can remember the time he took the youth group fm Kildonan United Church to the Dutch Maid and we shared something like 52 scoops of ice cream. When he took us to see you working at 7-eleven, because you couldn't join us that night. Also, the time we went to your parents place and played Uno. Your father thought it was great to stack tons of cards on me. Cherish the memories, as I know they are good ones. - Posted by: Margaret (Peggy) Leuschen (nee Hobbs) (congregational member) on: Jun 12, 2012

To Aunt Floss, Cousins - Lila, Bill, Don and Sylvia and all their families. My sympathy on the passing of Uncle Bill. May warm memories help you through the days ahead. I have special memories of time spent together in the late 50's when Uncle Bill and Aunt Floss visited with us in Scotland and I will always thank him for marrying Ralph and I in 1965. - Posted by: Christine Savoy (Davis) (Niece) on: Jun 08, 2012
