The Family wishes to thank all the staff of the second floor Lodge of Pioneer Manor for their care and support of our father and our family.
I’m so sorry to hear about Mr.Mc Ormond our neighbour on Henri Street. Both my mom and dad are gone but never forgotten. I keep them alive in my heart with my memories of them. Nancy I certainly remember our childhood with fond memories, do you still like white sugar wrapped in Kleenex……Cathy Stanley, myself and you would have many great stories we could share now that we are older and your Mom may laugh at now, which she probably would not of laughed at 45 years ago. And we all know that when ever our TV’s needed fixing Mr. McOrmond was your go to man. It does get easier with time and your memories.
Respectfully

Uncle Walter was a loving, caring man who we all looked up to. He was a role model to so many of us. He will be remembered fondly in our hearts and souls. Our condolences to Aunt Marion, David, Sandy and Nancy and their families. May he rest in peace, until we meat again.
