Helen and Steve…so very sorry to hear about the loss of your Dad. We are thinking of you Megan and your family during this difficult time. Hold tight to your memories.
Thanks Janet. Much appreciated. We miss him so much.
My condolences to the family, i wish i had a chance to meet him. I am Maria do Carmo’s daughter. Hugs 💕
Thank you so much Marlene for your note. It’s much appreciated. ❤️
My condolences to the family on the loss of a great man. I was ” Bill” as we knew him at TTC foreperson for several years up to his retirement from TCC . Bill was a gentleman ,a pleasure to be associated with . He had a calm relaxing demeanour and could always be counted on to get the job done. Although I only saw him once or twice after he left TTC I often though about him as he was that type of person . Your loss is great but take solace in knowing that Bill was also great .
Thank you Gerry for the kind words. Dad loved working at the TTC and especially loved everyone he worked with there. It means a lot for you to write this and have him in your thoughts. We miss him greatly.
