Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

  • Dear Uncle Peter, Keven Crista and Caitlyn. Pete and Shirley were married just a few weeks after Jack and I in 1964. They were part of my "adult life" in Winnipeg before we moved away. They had a baby boy several years before we did. Aunt Shirley was always fun and cheerful to be around. Seems she was always game for some fun antics at family reunions. Mardee shared some of those pictures at the last reunion. I recall vividly hearing her joyful "fishing" stories in White Shell and winters in Texas. May your own special memories sustain you at this time. Love, Rose - Posted by: Rosemarie Norris (niece) on: Nov 16, 2018
