    I am so very sorry and shocked to hear of Isabel's recent passing and did not know that Roger had passed away too. My parents Bob and Jona McLellan were great friends of theirs through square dancing and they became great friends of ours too. We were on our way to a wedding in Halifax tonight and as we passed the mobile home estates where they lived we remembered them. I recall how Roger used to call himself the oldest bag boy at the now closed Angelo's grocery store in Kingston. We used to get together with my parents, Roger and Isa and the square dancers many a Friday night to eat out and play Crazy 8's for many years. I loved when it was at their site in Marshfield. They were guests at our wedding 25 years ago. What a great loss to the world and their family who have our deepest sympathies. Sadly we drifted apart after my mom died in 1988. Please know that our deepest condolences are with you all. Peace to all the family, Eileen and Luis, Hyde Park, MA
