Brenda and family:
From across the street we became casual friends for many years… we’ve watched your children grow up, as you did ours. We have fond memories of watching Garry’s passion for life spill through into your house and home; and more recently – watched as your family rallied around each other with purpose and never-ending care and compassion.
We are so sorry for your loss… a man taken too soon – as we know the plans were already in the works to enjoy his retirement surrounded by new experiences, travel, family and memories yet to be created.
We’re still just across the street – should you ever need a casual friend to talk with, listen to, shovel your walk or cut your grass… all you need to do is ask. xo
