Deepest condolences for the loss of Snooks. I still remember swimming in the pool backyard in Port Moody and visiting up in Osoyoos when I was in the area

Dear Bob and family, I was sad to hear of Leota’s (Snooks) passing.
I want to send my deepest condolences to all of you.
May your fond memories and caring support from family and friends help you journey through this sad time. It was always a pleasure to talk with Snooks in our back yards, she will be missed.
From: Brian and Jan Kenny
Relation: good neighbour
Bob, we have so many thoughts about Snooks. She was a bad influence on me as I could never get out your front door without having consumed a good red with both of you. Snooks and you were surrogate grandparents to our children. The fishing trips are legendary. Snook’s habit of flying the flag of the country that you were working in was always a joy to see. The term “condolences” does not convey our abiding love and respect to both of you.
