Family Research in Ontario-July 2003
I had a great time in Ontario. I must give my appreciation to my Auntie Shelia first and foremost. Auntie made sure I did not miss a cemetery. Ensuring that I got all the historic sites embedded in my memory. Viewing the many headstones that Auntie knew I just had to see. The most heartfelt of all Auntie, you cried tears with me, knowing I had to cry, understanding what this adventure meant to me, Making sure I paid a visit to my Dad's mom's grave. At her grave Auntie, you understood, you cared and we cried. One day I will understand my tears for her. I did not at the time of visiting her grave, nor do I now, but I know one day I will. understand what she has over me.
Uncle Ed, Your the best Uncle I could ask for. You showed me unselfish love to a niece you never really new. I am very fortunate to have been able to spend the time with you. We sure had some great laughs, tears and huge hugs. You told me stories I would have never known if you had not told me. The gentle nudge you gave me to get that Brantford Baseball Shirt for dad,, Yes, straight to the owner, no fooling around.
And your girls, my cousins. I am honored to call you my cousins.
Shar, you made me laugh! Chris and Michelle, your great!
You all gave me memories I shall never forget.
I LOVE YOU ALL 100 BUTTERS
