I was so sorry to read Malcolm's obituary this morning, Marylou. He wore his years very well when I lived in Manitoba, and I didn't realize that he was actually older than Ray. We remember him administering communion to Ray and our small family a short time before his death, and it meant a great deal to us. Your husband touched so many lives, as did you, and I am sure the Dome building will be full for this final service. My sympathy to you and your family. - Posted by: Willa McMullan (Friend) on: Jun 23, 2026

I am so sorry to hear of Malcolms passing ! I always enjoyed our chats as he walked around the condo property for his exercise! His compassion and wisdom as part of the condo board of directors was refreshing ! I always thought Malcolm was a real gentleman - i liked Malcolm !!! - Posted by: Ken Skelton (Neighbour) on: Jun 23, 2026
