Death notice for the town of: Brooks, Province: Alberta
Dear Terris family,
I don’t know why but I’ve been thinking about your family a lot lately and decided to search on Google to see if I could find you. I was so sorry to read of John’s death. I remember your whole family so well. I’m sorry too that with the death of my grandmother Doris and her mom (Mamie) that we’ve lost touch. I would love to hear from any of you if you have any wish to contact me and if anyone even remembers me. Most sincerely, Gail (DeFeo) Nolte
