A very sincere thanks to our family for their heartfelt support during his last days. We would also like to extend thanks to the staff at St. Joseph’s Nursing Home and Seven Oaks Hospital for their compassionate care that was given.

“Those we love don’t go away
They walk beside us everyday
Unseen, unheard, but always near
Still loved, still missed and very dear.”
