Messages of Condolence


You might recall that we are the people who sold you our home in Murray Acres. We want to extend our condolences to the family. We always enjoyed the Berg Chorale and Irwin's piano playing! I had my Bible rebound quite a number of years ago by Irwin and am still using it. It has lasted longer than the original binding! We receive the Carlton's newsletters - so have had that link with the family for several years - from our time in Carstairs. May the Lord bless you and keep you always. ~ Roy and Vera Hanlan
