I would like to offer my deepest sympathy to Mr.Whitworth and all of his family. Mrs. Whitworth was one of my favourite customers and I always looked forward to seeing her in the days before they no longer drove. She was always so cheery and often loaned me a book that I could enjoy and then return on their next visit. It was truly my pleasure to receive her always cheerful phone calls and take care of her and Mr.Whitworth's orders - I will miss her. - Posted by: Gail Anema (Pharmacy team member) on: Nov 24, 2013

I have fond memories of both your mom and dad shopping at my Fort Garry store, Pasta and More. On more than 1 occasion Roger and Linda would have me deliver a meal for their anniversary or birthday. I enjoyed my visits with them as they were always happy and full of energy. Please accept my condolences. - Posted by: Susan Belanger (Neighbourhood friend) on: Nov 17, 2013

My condolences to Art and family on the loss of Edith. My dad Kass has known you for years, and I bowled with all of you many years ago and had a blast. Dad is living peacefully at Riverview these days but I know that he would send his heartfelt condolences but as his memory isn't like it used to be since the accident, I am offering condolences from both of us. - Posted by: Leslie Eskra (Friend) on: Nov 16, 2013
