Thank you father for your strong educational beliefs and support. You were an exceptional role model in overcoming obstacles, starting from the bottom, and working hard to build a life. Because of this, all six of your children were able to succeed in a wide variety of careers. I am immensely thankful to have obtained two very different career paths and currently working in healthcare for the past 10 years. We have all greatly benefitted from your decision many decades ago to immigrate to Canada. That decision alone had many positive rippling changes to all our lives and the lives of all seven grandchildren. You will never be forgotten and always missed.

Dad,

Thank you for showing me the way - your strong ethics & educational beliefs inspired me to become who I am today. I’ve done 2 careers in my life & about to embark on my 3rd career.

Thanks for showing me the sky is the limit & knowledge is key to success! My life will evolve to what I want to do & learn. Thanks for telling me that learning process is infinite & never be afraid of learning new things even at my age of 51!

Your ethics and values are embedded in me & I’ve shown my daughter Maggie the same things. I’ve given her many opportunities so she can become an effective leader of tomorrow’s generation.

Thank you, Dad, you will be missed.
