Hi Dale: Only met your Mom, one time at your Uncle Harold's farm, way back, but I remember her as a fine lady. May she rest in peace, with the rest of the Winger Angels. Jim Morrow
You are all in our thoughts and prayers at this very sad time. We have wonderful memories of your Dad and Mom in early days east of Carstairs and will treasure them forever.
