On behalf of my late father and mother, Peter and Marion Cole of East Selkirk, may I extend heartfelt condolences of Peter's passing. My father, Peter, talked often of growing up in East Selkirk with the Warrenchuk boys, namely Peter. I remember a weekend stay at the Warrenchuk house in River Heights with Greg when I was quite young. The Warrenchuk Family in East Selkirk were close neighbours that we respected so much. Our thoughts and prayers with the family at this most difficult time. - Posted by: Willy Cole (Friend) on: Oct 24, 2013
