Posted on: Monday, November 30, 2015Our condolences to family and friends. Don’s positive outlook on life will be missed and so will his contagious laughter. Summer at the cottage will be different this year but we know he will be there in spirit. We were fortunate to have Don in our life and circle of friends – he was truly a great guy.

I am surprised to hear about your Dad. Last time I spoke to him was after John, my husband passed away last March. You have my sincerest condolences. John and I had many a joyful time with Don and Gail and they will be missed by me sorely. Annie
