Condolences & Memories (1 entries)

I truly wish I had some words that would make a differance, but that is an impossibility. I am very sorry for the loss of your husband and father, and my loss of a brother-in-law. I have many found memories of Sterling, he was special to me, for the most part because he was different than the rest of our clan and from my perspective that was a good thing. My earliest memory of Sterling is of Sterling driving a Model A Ford, I think it was Bill's. I was sitting on the floor of the car looking through the holes in the floor for the brake and clutch pedals watching sparks from the exhaust. Sterling was laughing. I have no idea why that has stayed with me for so many years. My best wishes to you all. Gord - Posted by: Gordon Hepner (Brother in Law) on: Jan 24, 2014
