    Our condolences to the Young Family and especially thinking of you Woody . Bonnie was a lovely lady and glad we got a chance to know her a little more each time she was in Edmonton. Especially enjoyed the Jiggs Dinner she cooked for us and the knitted socks she made were the best. Sincere Condolences , Doris & Stan O’Neil
