    To George and the Racey Family. Very sorry to read of Jean’s death. Jean has put up a battle this last year. I have fond memories of the Elliott house on William St. Before it was made into a Funeral
    Home. We played in the backyard with all the evergreen trees.
    George all,the best to you. I enjoyed talking to you when you would be visiting at the Villa. Irv.

    Dear George, We want to send you and your family our condolences on the passing of Jean. She had such a sweet soul and was a delight to chat with. We remember meeting you out on your walks about town and then the many chats at Queensway and her stay there when our paths crossed while Deb’s Dad was in there. May you know God’s comfort and hope in her faith in eternity and what God has in store for her. Our love and prayers, Randy and Debby Wagler
