To Chris' Family.
I am so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. Chris and Julie were wonderful members of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 210 at Islington and Bloor. They both spent countless hours working for the branch and on our Poppy Campaign. Always had a good chuckle with Chris, a fascinating man who I enjoyed so much talking with. My sincere condolences to you family. May they both rest in peace. Sincerely, Brenda Nash, Past-President Branch 210
