  • My condolences to you and your family Dwayne. Sorry for your loss of your Mother. May she Rest In Peace - Posted by: Dan Wark (Former co-worker) on: Feb 02, 2025

  • We are sorry to hear of your loss. Our deepest condolences. I have so many fond memories of Mr & Mrs Gursky and family growing up on Beverley Street! Gwen, I remember going to your house and your mom always had the floors sparkly and shiny! I remember she got mad the day your family was going to a wedding and about an hour before you all left, Gayle, Kathy, you and I stuck cocamamies(temporary tattoos that took some time to remove) all over us! I also remember when she decided she was going to learn to swim! May all of the memories you hold dear to your hearts help you through this difficult time. Georgina, Bobby, Debbie and Cathy Green - Posted by: Cathy Green Szarko (Childhood neighbour) on: Feb 01, 2025
