To the family of Ross Hamilton, We were deeply distressed to learn of Ross's death. I(Herb) only knew Ross from coffee at A&W but I loved to listen to his deep, rich voice and enjoyed his friendly manner. He clearly loved to snowmobile and other outdoor activities. He will be greatly missed by all of us. Regrettably we will miss the funeral but we assure you our hearts and prayers are with you all. Sincerely Herb & Kim Gibson

Dear Ruth and Family: I heard about Rosco's accident in the smoke shack at work today. I am sincerely saddened by this unfortunate news. Many times I had thought to drop in for a visit, just to surprise you, and say "How's it going?" but life has a way of getting in the way. It is times like this that I regret not just dropping in to touch base, and say Hi. I hope to be able to pay my respects on Monday. In the meantime, I wish to convey my deepest condolences to you Ruth and your family. You are in my thoughts, sincerely, Mel.
