    Bob and Debbie, Pat and families,
    I was saddened to learn of Bruce&&single&&s passing from our cousin, Anne. My memories go as far back as when Bruce was a young suitor calling on Toot at 144 Goderich Street. He was always full of fun and quite a tease. These memories I shall cherish of Uncle Bruce. May you take solace in knowing he and Toot will be together for this Christmas and forever.
    Hawley Johnston, Brampton
