David and I are saddened to hear of Ann’s passing away. We will fondly remember Ann from the wonderful times we spent with her at the family gatherings in Ottawa. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
Amy, our heart goes out to you and your family at this difficult time.
I am so sorry to hear about Ann’s passed away. I was trully blessed to meet her and Terry for many years at APEC’s summits.
I am grateful for her life, may she rest in peace.
Un fuerte abrazo a Terry y a su familia.
God bless you.
Chère famille Clifford, nous vous offrons toutes nos condoléances en cette période difficile. Votre mère était si vive, pleine d’entrain, accueillante, généreuse et toujours à la dernière mode. Ses lunettes étaient aussi grosses que les miennes! Nous pensons à vous, Isabelle Gagne, Brian et Gabrielle xxx
Dear Terry and family as I sit here in Bangkok otw to Delhi then Ottawa I am shocked and sadden to hear of Ann’s passed. Condolences don’t say enough to know the loneliness you must feel right now Terry. Not a wife, not a companion but a woman who walked side by side throughout your 50 plus years together. I hope our paths will cross next year and we will remember her in our hearts and prayers always. Rick Logan
Dear Terry:
I just saw your email sent yesterday. I am deeply saddened by the loss that you and your family have encountered. My condolences.
While sitting here facing my computer I recall that about eight years before I met you and Ann in China for the first time. Since that year (the year of 2010) Global Vision has been my friend forever no matter I am in China, Canada, or USA.
The beautiful memories about Ann will last forever.
May my condolences bring you comfort and may my prayers ease the pain of this loss. God rests her soul.
With Best Regards, Jenny
