Condolences

Condolence From: Nancy Doty
Condolence: Dear Randolph, Annick and Kermit,
I was away on holiday when your Dad passed and so was unable to be at his service. Fortunately Ray Corbett gave me a copy of what he had said at the service and it seemed to me he had caught the very essence of your parents so well.
Carl and I had a very high regard for you Dad and I know how much his friendship meant to Carl. What courage Jack showed when we visited him in Halifax after the car accident.
I have made a donation to the Hospital Foundation in his memory, as I know the foundation was important in his life.
I extend to each of you my sincere condolences at this time.
Sincerely,
Nancy Doty

Condolence: Many years my uncle Jack visited us on his business trips to Europe. It was always exciting to have my Canadian uncle around.
After passing my highschool exam I was invited to visit the family in Canada; a memorable trip.
I will remember him as a kind and entertaining person with a good sense of humor.

Condolence: I remember Jack from our years together, on the Western Regional Health Board. He was fair and open minded and possessed a great sense of humor. Clearly, I enjoyed Jack's friendship and I gained wisdom from the good fortune of knowing him.

Condolence: I was saddened to learn of Jack's passing. I remember Jack and Lies as such good friends when I would visit with Bob and Marion Brooks at Lake Annis.I appreciated the nod in the obituary to Yarmouth as his "adopted hometown," at a time when we continue to get new Canadians to make our country even stronger. Jack and Lies set the standard high with their own contributions. I send condolences to Randolph (hello, Margaret!),Annick, Kermit, and families at this time.
