Death notice for the town of: Woodstock, Province: Ontario
My deepest condolences to Jeff, Wendy and family for the loss of your Dad. My fondest memories of your Dad and all the other parents was playing softball league for Beachville and support from the Beachville legion in the early-mid 70’s. And of course Friday night bowling with your mom and aunt Shirley at the wheel to take us there and home. Every once in awhile I’d cross paths with your dad at the post office and we’d chat a bit about the old days and always asked how my mom and dad were doing. Such a great and gentle man. He will be missed.
