Dear Uncle Rick and family,

Fergie was such a unique gentleman. He will be missed by all those who loved him and knew him.

Please accept our deepest and sincere condolences at this time of loss but let’s not forget it is a time of celebration as Fergie was welcomed with open arms as he arrived back home with his Lord and Saviour. I have this poem I thought might be appropriate.

Letting Go

God saw you getting tired. When a cure was not to be,
He closed his arms around you and whispered, “Come to Me”.

In tears we saw you sinking. We watched you fade away.
Our hearts were almost broken; you fought so hard to stay.

But when we saw you sleeping so peacefully free from pain,
We could not wish you back to suffer so again.

So keep your arms around him Lord, and give him special care.
Make up for all he suffered and all that seemed unfair.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.

Love Always and HUGS!

Christine, Chris, Megan, Cassandra and Christian

Dear Judy, Jack, Rick and the rest of your family,
My thoughts & prayers are with you all.
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,
Love leaves a memory no one can steal,
and when someone you love becomes a memory,
the memory becomes a treasure.
Love you all

Condolence from Diane & Bob Mills on October 26th, 2010 6:58 pm

Dear Judy & Family – (A Rose Beyone the Wall) – A rose once grew where all could see, sheltered beside a garden wall. And, as the days passed swifly by, it spread it branches, straight and tall. One day, a beam of light shone through a crevice that had opened wide – The rose bent gently toward its warmth then passed beyond to the other side. Now, you who deeply feel its loss, be comforted – the rose blooms there – its beauty even greater now, nurtured by God’s own loving care. Love Diane & Bob Mills (Judy’s cousin)

Condolence from Donna Haley on October 26th, 2010 7:17 pm

With hearfelt sympathy, Donna & Morris Haley, Bill Watson & Lisa Lord, and all of your neighbours at the Park Manor Apartments.

To the Ferguson Family.

So sorry to hear of your loss.
I bowled five pin on the same team with Bud for many years at Avenue bowl on First Ave and then at O K bowl. I will always remember his tireless work as secretary and many laughs we had those years.
When I entered his apartment building for work purposes there was always a big hello and a handshake.
Cherish your memories.
With deepest sympathy
Scott Brown
