Morning Irene and family,
Sorry to hear about Ray's passing.
Aline and I want to wish you and the family our sincere condolences. Wish we were closer and in non covid times so we could extend condolences personally.
Maybe we can plan a coffee break next time we are in Ottawa.
Aline and I had planned to holiday out in western Canada and the U.S.A at this time but covid makes that impossible. Yellowstone Park will have to wait.
We were lucky to be out of Mexico before the crisis hit there in March.
But we didn't take any chance and quarantined for 14 day just in case.
Aline and I are always looking for our next extended holiday but that will now be on hold.
Paul and Aline
