Kenny & Hughie, My sincere sympathy on the passing of your dad. It was a pleasure to get to know him and your mom many years ago. They were great friends to the Girvins and it was a bond that remained strong until the end. It was heartwarming to know that Papa had the Crocketts to spend his retirement years with in London. I have several pleasant memories of spending time Lynda and Jim when they were visiting back in Thunder Bay. They were always very important to Bobby and he shared wonderful old stories of times with them. The Girvins valued the friendship!
