Condolences & Memories (11 entries)

  • Susan & Jan, Please accept my condolences on the deaths of your parents, Ole in 2000 and Karen in 2013. Both were very good friends to my Grandmother also a Dane and my parents as well. When I lived in Winnipeg, I would visit your parents and always enjoyed the Danish culture with them, including strong coffee at any time of the day! My Grandmother died many years before them and for me, your parents were a connection to our origins in Denmark. I always remember them with fondness. - Posted by: Ross Quane (Family friend) on: Jan 22, 2022
