Was so sorry to read of the passing of your Mom. Will remember all the good times we had together on Clare Ave, and what great friends your Mom & Dad were to my Mom & Dad. Many great memories. May our parents all be at peace and I'm sure your Mom and mine are once again playing bridge. My sincere condolences to you, Murray and your families, love Heather - Posted by: Heather (Walker) Mackereth (childhood friend of daughter Dianne Dexter) on: Jan 04, 2014
