It is with sadness that we just found out of Ivan’s passing from a mutual friend. Ivan and Gwen were such a great support to us in our early mission work in the Cariboo, comming to provide ministry relief for us so that our family could take holidays in our first two summers on the field. It was a gracious and life saving help and we are forever grateful.
So very sorry to hear of Ivan’s passing. We send our sincerest condolences. Love from Ivan’s cousins Martha (nee Brown) Wright and Tom Brown. Our Mother Violet (Harvey) Brown was Anna (Harvey) Gamble’s youngest sister.
