Death notice for the town of: Estevan, Province: Saskatchewan
Condolences go out to Joyce’s daughters and families.
I remember your mom being a fun loving lady and will never forget all the many good games and dancing we enjoyed with her in earlier years. It was so good to see her a few years ago at our Esso gathering that was organized by the younger generation.
Sincerely Edy Dracek.
Thank you for your kind words Edy. Mom really enjoyed the Esso friends and the reunion was a great memory for all. – Laurie
