Ron was one of the best client in my barber Shop. He followed me from Kenneth barber Shop on Archibald to Transcona. He give me some advice for business. When he started to be sick I was over his house and cut his hair. I was wondering why no calls after the last haircut, go to his Facebook and no answer now I know why. He called me few months after he gets sick and offer me his wife fur coat value of $25000 but I told him, I don't wear that I knew why because he knew I need money but I refuse. Today I regret because I will have something to remember that wonderful person Ron was, but he will be in my memory for the rest of my life. My condolence to the family. Hope you keep spotless that beautiful home he had. I miss the wonderful person. - Posted by: Chantal Besson () on: Jul 09, 2017

Raymond and Roger, I am so sorry to hear about your dad. Your mom and dad were always so much fun to be around and we loved having them over for family dinners and events. It was evident that they loved each other and the only condolences on losing them is that they are now together. It seems like such a small condolence in consideration of the love they shared with us all. To my most loved Uncle, safe travels I will think of you and Cecile everyday. - Posted by: Alanna and Stuart Holroyd and family (niece ) on: Apr 27, 2017
