To Mrs. Glover, Jayne and Barb,
I’m not sure that you’ll remember me, but I knew Charlie and Jayne and Barb when we attended WCG in Lethbridge. Ben and Adela Kolk are my parents…I am their oldest daughter. I have many fond memories of your husband/dad. He was always so very kind and my Dad really enjoyed and appreciated Charlie a great deal. I want you to know you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
