We are all so sorry to hear of Adel’s passing. She will always be remembered for her quick whit and humor and her love for her family. My Dad, Bob Guynn, has some of the best memories of Adel and he often shares them with us all. When Dad speaks of her and her siblings he always has a smile on his face. Adel and Dad were cousins, but not just cousins they were life long friends. RIP Adel! You will be missed.

As Adell’s longtime family physician, I wanted to offer my condolences. She and Al were among my favourite patients. Whether it was being seen as a patient herself or transporting Al or one of her neighbors to the doctor, she always brought a smile to my face. May she rest in peace.

Sorry to see your mom passed, Rodney. I’m sure she warmed a lot of hearts and gave a lot of love to all of you through the years and will be missed by all.( if this is the same Rodney I worked with in x11 for many years, call me at 487-2609.)
