Tena, Jenny, Karen, Diana, Theo, Gerry & families: This is never an easy time for family. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. There are many memories of our two families visiting while growing up; some which are still displayed in old pictures. I know that my mother was honoured to be included in your 50th wedding anniversary celebration. Relationships that have endured over so many years have such great value. I know how I felt personally seeing people from my childhood at my own mother's funeral. It was a pleasure to have the opportunity to once again visit my formative years. I hope you have moments of enjoyment and celebration with your own family and friends during this grieving process. I am sorry that I am unable to be present to pay my respect. Take care of yourselves. Anne Van Deursen
