Dear Lilly, Sharon& Rob,
Our condolences for your dear Dad, he was such a good man. We remember all the good times our families had together Travelling to Florida, Summer time fun in the Markhams backyard pool, and a whole lot more. My mom Sophie would also have been so sorry to hear about him passing, now they will see each other in Heaven.
My Dad Peter reminisces about growing up with Fred on Fennings St. off of Queen St. everytime we drive downtown especially.
We will miss him very much. We will pray for Lilly to get through this tough time.
All our Love Peter, Helen & Connie Pawlak
