Joan, My condolences on your loss. My thoughts are with you and your family.
I am so sorry to read of Arthur's passing. My Mother, Phyllis West used to work with Arthur, along with Jack O'Connell and Lois Kit in the Department of Pension's Advocates for the Federal Government. I remember how much they all enjoyed their work and working together. My condolences. Sherry Monger
Mary Anne, Laura, Alex and Scott - our deepest condolences to you, Joan and the Kruse family. Our thoughts are with you...sending lots of hugs from Ottawa.
Joan - please accept my deepest sympathy on the passing of dear Art. I will always remember the first snowfall on Cranbrook in 1991 when Art came across the street with his snowblower. Harry never forgot. Now they are together sharing many stories I am sure. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Marilyn
