Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Robert Allan Westrop February 9 1943 March 22 2019 (age 76)..
Death notice for the town of: Fort-Macleod, Province: Alberta
Condolences to the family, my late father Ed YellowHorn considered him a friend, and the family appreciated their kindness to him when he would attend church alone. My father got a kick out of Lindy’s husband Scotty Jessen speaking Blackfoot to him whenever he would see him. Know that your father was well thought of in our community, and considered him a friend to our YellowHorn family. Best Regards Dave and Charlotte YellowHorn McLeod, Calgary.
