To Susan, Andy and family. Our families through Riverside have enjoyed many years of friendship and fellowship. I treasure these memories. When your Mom and Dad would call for computer help, it was great to stop in and chat and get them going again. Your Dad was so keen to get his ribbons catalogued, and got online with email so he could contact and trade with other collectors. We had some great visits.
We’ve missed Wilma at our gatherings, and now we will miss Tom. However, their spirits will never leave us.
May you have the comfort knowing that they have life everlasting with our Lord whom they loved and worshipped, Jesus, and may these days of grief and remembrance be soon replaced with memories of years gone by, which will last a lifetime.

To the Greenlees family,
We were very sorry to hear about your loss. I always enjoyed seeing Mr. Greenlees in Port Stanley over close to 40 year. My favourite memories were the many weekend sailing excursions with my dad and Mr. Greenlees. We rareley found the wind (which is hard to do on Lake Erie), but it was always a great time!
Best Regards,
Kevin, Andrea, Hunter and Hayden Jolliffe.

It was with great shock and sadness that we read of Tom’s passing in the Free Press. Mother and I had just been discussing when Tom might drop by for tea and a discussion of Henty’s books, as we did each summer. We all remember the great fun we had during those long summers of our youth, and the chart of Lake Erie Tom gave us still hangs on the cottage wall. On behalf of Mrs. Raven (Marilyn), Cathy, Melissa and Ian (Wink), please accept our heartfelt condolences on Tom’s passing – he will certainly be missed by us all.
