    We hope these words of prayer help you
    through these difficult times.

    The road of life may take us where we do not care to go;

    Up rocky paths, down darkened trails, our steps unsure and slow.

    But our dear Lord extends His hands to hold, to help, to guide us;

    We never have to feel alone for He walks close beside us.

    To Marion, Karen, Lorraine and family.
    It is with great sadness I was to hear of the sudden passing of Jim. Sad in the sense that I did not have the opportunity to spend more time in his company but glad to have enjoyed our social times together and the common interests we shared.
    I will always treasure the banter and his sense of
    humour.

    May God Bless You,Lorraine and Karen at this sad time.
