We are so very sorry for your loss.
Raymonde and Family. Our condolences to you. My his soul and all of the souls of the faithful departed rest in piece. Lawrence and Pauline.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Raymonde. We just returned from the Samboree in Armstrong and we sure missed you both! We have lots of great camping memories, especially the Oregon Coast trip and going out on the Sand Dunes! Such fun and such great memories! Prayers for peace to you and your family.
Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to family and friends.
Our deepest sympathy to Raymonde and all your family. Jack touched many lives and will be missed by many. Love Mark, Anita, Kaitlyn & “Jordan in Spirit.”
Loren, Janine, Dina, Raymonde and everyone in your respective families, my heartfelt condolences to all of you. My family was fortunate to have been adopted by Loren and Janette when we were neighbours on Brentwood road and through that we got to meet all of you and got to be part of a large family, something I was not used to. I met Jack and Raymonde several times over the next few years and was always impressed by the closeness and love you all shared.(I have to include Janettes side of the family in that picture as well) I see Jack in all his children, especially in Loren and I’m sure anyone who knew Jack will agree Loren is his fathers son.
Again, I’m sorry for your loss.
John Wiliamson.
My most sincere condolences. My thoughts and prayers are with you all, especially at this difficult time.
