Remembering with great fondness a lovely lady with a delightful sense of humour who, like her late husband, was so kind and welcoming to me as a friend of her daughter, Nancy, while I was living in Winnipeg in the 1970s and during my visits to Canada from England since. My love and deepest sympathy to the family in their sad loss. - Posted by: Deborah Haynes (Family friend) on: Jul 27, 2015
