Phylis, Sandra and family, we are so sorry for the loss of your mom. We are down with the Reds watching the boys play. The connection to that is very real as Gerry loved to talk about Max’s successes on the diamond. We really enjoyed both your mom and dad in the store and I always knew she liked to visit and talk about her family and catch up on mine. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you all and how sorry we can’t be there to honour your mom at the wake and her service. Love and prayers Bonnie and Ken
