Tracey and I are very sorry to hear of your loss Janette. Parents can live a long and interesting life but still it is never enough for an admiring and loving child.
However, they do live forever in our most precious, and mundane memories, never far from us.
Much love and deepest sympathy,
Kevin and Tracey Phillips

I am so sorry for your loss. Art will be greatly missed at Country Terrace. He was a very loving and kind man. He never complained and whenever I would ask him how he was he would say “wonderful” and give me that warm smile with a twinkle in his eye! I will miss him greatly.
Love Alysha in activities
