Tom and Kathy, heard this sad news today and I recalled you two from my childhood in North Bay, you were two classy and friendly kids. And your father coached my older brother in hockey. So I am feeling your loss, your second parent passing away, just as my father died last October, and thinking there will be an emptiness with no parents left in your lives, to be filled in part by a stronger bond between you siblings.

Both Ann and I have many happy memories of both Les and Yvonne, especially after they moved to Sault Ste.Marie following Les's election as Bishop. I think we first met when they were living in North Bay and I was an overnight guest at their home. We also spent time together at Camp Manitou and we have fond memories of this as well. We extend our sincere condolences to you all at this time of bereavement.
