Hi Beth,
I read about Adam passing away recently in the Prince George newspaper.
I am so sorry to hear that. He was a wonderful person and will be missed by so many people.
You both have been so kind to me and my family over the years. I look back fondly on our days at INAC and the visits Heather, Colin and I had to “grandma” Beth and Adam’s farm.
It was great to catch up with you a few years ago and have the round of golf with you and Adam in Kamloops.
I am so sorry for your loss and hope that your wonderful memories give you comfort and strength in the present and future.
Much love,
