Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

  • Uncle Dave was a happy, caring and considerate person who always had time for the big family he was born into, as he loved to bring his brothers and sisters together for food and conversation. He had even more time and love for his immediate family.. We were deprived of his Klippenstein family gatherings when he fell ill a few years ago and will all miss his smile and friendly visits. We extend our deepest sympathy to Aunt Mary and the whole family. - Posted by: Trudy & Lawrence Klippenstein (Nephew) on: Aug 29, 2013

  • Our Father, David, is not suffering any more and is in God's Hands now. - Posted by: Harvey & Rose Klippenstein (Oldest Son to David Klippenstein) on: Aug 29, 2013

  • My deepest sympathy to Aunt Mary and the family. My memory of Uncle Dave was a happy person, very proud of Aunt Mary and their family, always ready to lend a helping hand. - Posted by: Connie Klippenstein (Niece (by marriage Elmer Klippenstein, Kelowna,BC)) on: Aug 28, 2013
