So sorry here to hear the passing of Vesta. She will be greatly missed by
our family as well as yours. She was a wonderful friend and person. Unfortunately we will not be able to make it down to
the funeral, as we have two other commitments here in Canada. We will visit her and Herm's grave in October when we
come down.
Love John, Judy, Julie and Jamie
