    I am so sorry to learn of Valerian’s death. I remember him as a very handsome cousin. We always enjoyed going to Uncle Stanley and Aunt Mary’s farm home for those Sunday afternoon visits. The years go by quickly and sadly we get busy and don’t keep in touch. Our deepest sympathy to cousins Marlene and Geraldine and the families. May God comfort you during these difficult days.
