She and Hommer co-signed a loan to buy my first car while I was living at their place in Winnipeg and Roy had moved to my mothers place in Toronto. We had effectively traded parents . My new parents were very good to me and have been a source of good ideas and advice all my life . I missed Hommer first and now I will miss Joan . - Posted by: Shane Williams (Friend ) on: Mar 30, 2013
