Condolences & Memories (1 entries)

  • Edward Joyal, my last surviving uncle, my mother's brother, was a kind, kind, man. Always tending his gardens or feeding the wild birds he loved. He spent his later years with his Great-Grandson, the second love of his life. Predeceased by his first love of his life, Joan, he will be greatly missed by his children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and many nephews and nieces. I will miss his warmth and hearty laugh. An amazing gentleman. - Posted by: James Carter (Family) on: Aug 02, 2005
