The Family of Christine (Sorenson) Clifford would like to thank friends, neighbours, and the community for the love and support we have received in the wake of our tragic loss. We are incredibly thankful for the donations made in remembrance of Christine, both from the community and from Michels Canada, as well as the cards, food, flowers, hugs, prayers, and memories shared. It is because of your caring and kindness that we are able to start on this journey of healing.
Thank you.

Heartfelt thanks to family, friends, and neighbours who joined us in celebrating my 75th birthday. I felt the warmth and sincerity of your good wishes. I’d like to share these “lines to live by”, as I have found them so helpful. “I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year: “Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown”. And he replied, “Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God that shall be to you better than light and safer than a known way”. Thanks be to God for the many blessings I have received in my three quarters of a century.
Most sincerely,
Joyce Bergseth

MEMORIAL

In Memory Of
Robert (Bob) Robbins
January 22, 1940 –
November 18, 2013

Remember him with a smile today
He was not one for tears
Reflect instead on
memories
Of all the happy years
recall to mind the way he spoke
And all the things he said
His strength, his stance,
the way he walked
Remember these instead
The good advice he’d
give us
His eyes that shone with laughter
So much of him will
never die
But live on ever after
As we loved you, so
we miss you
In our memory you
are near
Loved, remembered, longed for always
Bringing many a
silent tear.

Your Loving Wife Doreen and Family.

—————

Lisa Elaine Ley
May 10, 1969 –
November 21, 2013

One year has passed –
Your life was a blessing
Your memory a treasure
You are loved beyond words
And missed beyond
measure.

Always in Our Thoughts and Hearts,
Your Family.
—————

In Loving Memory of
Ryan Bish
September 28, 1996 –
November 5, 2010

His Smile

Though his smile is gone forever
and his hand we cannot touch,
We still have so many memories
of the one we loved so much.
His memory is our
keepsake
with which we never part,
God has him in his
keeping,
We have him in our hearts.
Sadly missed but never
forgotten.
Ryan you are always on our minds and forever in our heart.

Forever Loved and Remembered.
Love,
Your Family.
