Doug, Brenda, Glenda and families, I was so sorry to hear about the loss of Mabel. Mabel was the first cousin of my father, Gordon Hills. Mabel and Irv and my parents, Gordon and Mabel (another Mabel), spent many happy evenings playing cards and talking family history together after Mabel and Irv moved to Regina from the farm. Mabel was a warm and gracious person who welcomed everyone to her home. Her homemade cookies were always a treat ! She loved talking about her family and kept us all updated on the comings and goings of all of you. Please know that others are thinking of you in the weeks and months to come. With deepest sympathy, Eldon
