Dear Corey and family, Sorry to hear of the loss of your dad. I remember him well when both of you came to my office many years ago. I especially remember his humour. Cherish the many memories during this time of great sadness. Don Hughes
Dear Gayle & family. You have our deepest sympathy. It was so nice to have a visit with you & Barry in Nov.God Bless him.
Gayle and family: I am a friend of Barry from Lady Beck Public School and Sir Adam Beck Secondary School although we have lost touch over time. I find words fall short of expressing sorrow but from a headstone in Ireland I pass on these words "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal." So hold on to those memories and keep them tucked safely within your heart. Condolences from me and many Beckites that are learning about his passing.
Dear Janice, We last saw each other when we were 12, but I remember Barry and Keith from visits to your place. My love to you; it is so sad to lose family. Jim and I send our condolences. Jane (Edy) Hughes, St. Thomas
