No person is ever truly alone. Those who live no more, Whom we loved, Echo still within our thoughts, Our words, our hearts. by Richard Fife
Our sympathies go out to you and your family.
Mr Trudel was a very kind and generous man who loved his family dearly. He will be sorely missed.
I smile though,at the thought of him embracing sweet Annie again.
