Dear Sheila, John, Bruce, Wendy and all the Gelhay family,
We were so very sad to receive news of René's death. We will remember a dear neighbour, always dapper in his hat, always with a cheerful smile on his face, despite his health challenges in recent years, and of course, always his devoted Sheila at his side. We are so sad that we will not be back in Ottawa in time for his funeral, but know that we will be thinking of you and we will lift a glass of wine to René's memory.
With our condolences and love,
Suzanne and Laval Gobeil
Dear Sheila,
I'm looking at the very pleasant photo of René that's posted here and in the newspaper. It well reflects the gentle man and gentleman that I knew. Please accept my sincerest condolences on his passing. I know you were a marvelous support to him in the past couple of years.
Best regards,
Blyth
