Dear Margaret, dear Shirley and dear Christopher,
We extend our heartfelt sorrow at the loss of your beloved husband, father, and grandfather. He was a gentle man and kind friend whose soothing voice will be well remembered. I particularly recall his wonderful bakery specialties namely the fantastic rye bread and chocolate coated “mountains”. He surely was a talented man and we will think of him with these fond memories. We wish you strength and send you our sincere condolences.
