Condolences
Our deepest condolences on the loss of Kaye.
— Ron and Maureen Tucker, January 29, 2026Sending my sincere condolences to the Moody family.. Bill and Kaye were great friends of ours through Lionism for many years, meeting them in 1980. My late husband Ivan was especially close to Bill and because of that friendship was encouraged by Bill to become a District Governor, with his guidance in 1991. They were truly a remarkable and well loved couple by so many and now together. May this ease the sadness.. God bless. Sheila Campbell.

Sending my sincere sympathy to Lee, Bill and your entire family on the passing of Kaye. I have many memories of both Bill and Kaye as our backyard neighbours at our first house in Mount Forest. Then, after a move across town, we became neighbours of the Nelson's. I babysat Stuart, Sandy, and Drew quite often and felt very much part of your extended family. Kaye was always so warm and kind and I know her loss will be felt greatly. Although many years have passed since I've lived in Mount Forest, I will always cherish the memories I have with your family. Sincerely, Karen.
