I will always cherish Aunty Perle's memory, as will our family here in Calgary. She was a wonderful person, with a laugh that would make you laugh. Len and I were honoured to do a song at their 50th wedding anniversary in Beaconia--The Battlehymn of Love. Aunty Perle asked us to do that song the next time we got together at Aunty Clara's. She said she loved that song. And we loved her! May God comfort you in the loss of a great lady, Mother, Wife, Grandmother to you all.
