Bob Wray Bill, Sincere Condolences on the loss of your Mother.
This message is for Bill Hillcoat. I’m very sorry if I have the wrong Bill Hillcoat, but regardless my condolences on the loss of your dear Mother. I came across this notice and I’m not sure if you are the same one or not…but you used to be in the RCMP Musical Ride back in the early 60’s. We met through a friend and lost touch over the years, and I lost my own Mother in 1963.
Please forgive me if you are not the right one, but if you are please feel free to send a little note. Take care, God Bless
Lynda K. Norman (nee Willson)
