Jean, Wayne, Wade and families, no words can describe the sense of loss we are feeling here in Ontario. Some of my fondest memories are of Kenneth & Jean and when they brought their motor home to Canada. Always smiling, laughing and joking we all loved spending time together.Good times at the sand hills and the beach. Fishing and baseball was so much fun with all of you. We will truly miss Kenneth and may he rest in peace. I'm sending you a big hug now but will give you a real one in person in the spring. Love you Jean!
