    Faye, was hoping you and Dad were going to make that trip down here to California in the T-Bird. Im so thankful I got to see Dad when I was in Saskatoon. The painting of him done in 1976 that he gave to me Is a treasure.
    I’m sorry Mark and I can’t be there for the celebration of his life. Missing him already. We send our love to all of you back in Canada
