    Dear Jean and family,
    I was so very sorry to hear about Jock. I know what a wonderful person he was and how important he was to all of you. I hope that all of those warm and special memories will bring you some comfort during this very difficult time. Thinking of all of you and keeping you close in my prayers and heart.
    Theresa

    So sorry to hear about Mr. Shaw passing away.
    Some of my best memories as a kid were at the family cabin at the Shuswap. He was the best pancake maker ever, and would not let you only have one or two, but usually three or four until you were so stuffed. And when we got a bit older he would be on night patrol making sure all the boys stayed outside in their tents, and all the girls were cuddled up in the cabin safe and sound. He will be dearly missed by his friends and family.
