Dear Pat and Family. We were so sorry to hear of Clarences passing. We missed our many visits from when we were at the garage. Many stories were told. He was a very nice man to know and will be sadly missed by all. Sincerely Brian and Wendy.
Laura - Thinking of you with sympathy in the loss of your father. Hoping that memories of good times help to comfort you. Praying for God to be with your family.
I am sorry that I am unable to be there for you to pay my respects because I have been sick with that flu virus and don't want to spread the bug. Sending hugs, XX Joan
