Death notice for the town of: Tillsonburg, Province: Ontario
Jennifer and I would like to send condolences to Cheryl and Leslie. We were two sisters who, when we each started school found two other sisters for our best friends. Remembering ‘little’ Susie… and your kind mother. Our mother Joy also sends her best to the family. Were it not that we all lived in the Atlantic provinces now, we would certainly attend Susie’s funeral service today. Our sincere thought are with you.
