Hello George and John, We were so sorry to read that your dad had passed away. We remember him (your Mom and you both) as he was when we first met him in Minto. We were younger and so was he and I guess we lose track of all the years that have passed since then. We always hope that death won't occur and it is always difficult to understand. Just know that we mourn his passing but celebrate his life and all that he accomplished. There are so many things in life we don't understand. The best we can do is to hope, believe, to care and to remember. And that we will always do. Take care and all the best. Brian and June Sprott p.s. Brian has retired and I am no longer teaching but we are well and travel often. - Posted by: Brian and June Sprott (friends) on: Jun 04, 2015
