I am very sorry for the loss of Uncle Curly. My condolences to Doreen and her family, and to Bradley, Dianne and Roxanne and their families. Curly was a great uncle to us. I am very sorry and sad that I could not make it to the service, but it is good to know that Gary, Gail and Tammy will be with my mom and Stan to honour and remember him today. Best wishes from Mark, Caroline, Sophie and Anna in Uxbridge, Ontario.
