Pat and Marilyn,I know how difficult it is to deal with losing a parent, but please know I feel deeply for you at this time.I really enjoyed the times I was in Winnipeg and visited with your Mom and Dad. Aunt Elaine was a very Classy person who loved her family deeply. She was so very proud of her family, and when ever I spoke with her over the years she always told me how all were doing. She is now in a far better place and she leaves an outstanding legacy that you can be very proud of. - Posted by: Vernon Bowen (Family) on: Mar 22, 2006
