Our most heartfelt condolences for your loss. Please find comfort in God’s promise of everlasting life (John3:16), an eternity of time spent with those we love.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Dawn.
I don’t know if any of you remember me. I attended U of L in the early ’80’s and rented Paul’s basement suite.
Strangely, I had a dream about him last night and thought I’d see if I could find him on the computer and came across Katy’s memorial.
I’m saddened to hear of it. She was a beautiful woman in every way and I can’t imagine how much you must be missing her.
Please know that my thoughts will be with you this first Christmas without her.
You are a strong family and I pray your love for each other will sustain you.
Kitty,
Today is seven years of you leaving this earth. However, your beautiful spirit is here. Your kindness, compassionate and commitment to social justice were precious gifts. Love you Canadian mom!
