My Best Memory of Grandpa: As a little girl my sister and I would occasionally spend the summer weekend with Grandma & Grandpa at the cottage. Some early mornings we would hear a loon in the bay and Grandpa would mimic it trying to get it to call back to us. This to a little girl was hilarious; I would giggle and giggle in anticipation of hearing the loon call back. The cooing sounds that would come from Grandpa's throat was funny and fascinating all at the same time. As the years went by I found myself wishing every morning that we would hear a loon. Til this day whenever I hear a loon I think of those rare moments with Grandpa and probably always will.
May you rest in peace with Grandma. Love you forever.
Wayne: I am sorry to hear of your Grandfather's death. I pray he will enjoy eternal happiness in Heaven. ." "And He will raise him up on Eagle's wings,bear him on the breath of dawn." Peace to all your family.
My deepest sympathies on the passing of Don. Your entire family was always such a big part of the old neighborhood. Treasure your memories and please know that you are in my thoughts.
