Dear Janice and Sandra, I am so sorry to hear about your dad. I think about you guys often, wondering how you're doing. I have very fond memories of hanging out together. I met up with Peter Denomme's sister Judy at my nephew's wedding (his wife Andress is friends with Judy's daughter - small world...) Judy told me a bit about you and your families. I am sorry that I can't make it London to give you my condolences personally. I hope we can catch up with each other some time. You're in my thoughts and prayers. Sue Grierson

Cora, Mike and family, I am sorry to hear of Arnold's passing. Although I knew him only briefly I have very fond memories of him as a kind-hearted and fun-loving man. I have never forgotten the vanVugt family celebration at O'Brien's Irish pub over 20 years ago when family from Holland were visiting. My fondest memory is of Arnold dancing on the tables! Bless his heart! He sure was the life of the party! I am wishing you all great strength and peace, now and in the weeks and months to come. May your happiest memories and the love and support of your family and friends sustain you. Love & Friendship, Wendy

Dear Cora and family, I was sorry to hear about Arnold passing. I have such fond memories of the two of you at Picadilly Place! You were such a mentor to me as I began my career in E.C.E.

Dear Cora and family,After so many years of always thinking of you all and remembering all of the fondest of memories , it saddens me to say how sorry I am for your loss. I always remember a warm, kind-hearted gentle man that had a sparkling smile .... not to mention he taught me how to appreciate croquettes , but then Mrs Cora you always did make the best. Love to all, Judy and family
