My heart goes out to you, Arthur-Norm-Helen, to see the passing of your Mom. It is such heartache when we lose a loved one. I only met your Mom once or twice- but I sure remember both, Arthur & Norman, quite well. I do send my thoughts & prayers to you all. I will send my sister's,(Laurie) condolences & prayers, to you too. (she's always busy & may miss this announcement) I know she would want to send her regards. I think of "once upon a long time ago" often & how this young gals memories of back then, flow through my mind to take me there. And the sadness I felt when, Arthur, left to join the RCMP & the magical "Musical Ride"! (I cried alot) Please take care; my heart goes out to you all.
