Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Harold Elwood Kersey 2021..
Death notice for the town of: Windsor, Province: Ontario
Dear Kersey Family;
Mr. Kersey was our dear neighbor on Dougall Avenue for many years. Not only was he a good friend to my dad who was then dealing with a serious illness. But he remained a good friend to our family after my dad passed away, helping to fix things in our home that had broken. And always doing it cheerfully and with a warm smile.
I will always remember Mr. Kersey for the kind and gentle man that he was. May he rest in perfect peace. Strength and life to his family.
Chris(topher) – Mr. Kersey’s former neighbor on Dougall Avenue
