Dear Mike,
Joanne and I were so sorry to hear of the passing of your father. We offer our sincere condolences. We first met Trevor and your mother Olga many, many years ago when you and our son David were attending Appleby College. They were such a happy, charming couple. You and your brother Mark were blessed to have such wonderful parents. Your father was highly intelligent and an honourable man. Joanne and I delighted in the times we spent with him. When we moved to Victoria we missed those meetings, but we kept in touch. We know how much he will be missed, but you must take satisfaction from knowing that he has gone to a better world. Sincerely, Michael Stevenson

We honor and celebrate his life, so well-lived and so well-loved. With love always to you all. May he rest peacefully and joyfully in God’s heavenly kingdom. We love you Trev. You made our lives infinitely better. Maybe we live with your wisdom, grace, kindness and character in all we do and say. Love and blessings, Di.
