Messages of Condolence

We knew Bill and Hazel and their family when they lived in Somerset England. He was a gentle, caring man and we were made very welcome when we visited with them in Calgary some years ago. We were also so pleased to see him when he visited England with Hazel a few years ago. We have thought of you often Bill. Rest in Peace with The Lord. John and Viv.
