A tribute to a gentleman of gentlemen. This is a difficult one, the memories, the great and interesting times. My mother (birth), Diane and Mrs. Broatch all worked together at the A&W on Roseberry and Ellice...at least I think that is where is was...My mother and Mrs. Hinds were car-hops way back in the 60's and Mrs. Broatch was in the kitchen. What a trio of ladies. I became friends with Russ and Jerry during that time....for some unknown reason, I ended up calling them Aunti Diane and Uncle Reid....although, no direct relationship. Spent great times at the cottage in Matlock or Wpg Beach...best times of my life....Uncle Reid....may you Rest In Peace...your memory will live in infinity...Respectfully, Wayne Bennink, MTA, CD2, CF Ret'd, CF Veteran (VAC) - Posted by: Wayne Bennink (A Friend) on: Nov 04, 2023

And I witnessed the beautiful love you had for him through your wonderful caregiving as his health declined. I hope you will find peace and joy in the memories that your life together created.
