What a wonderful, generous, friendly, funny guy. Maurice was a great friend to all of us but expecially to Dave. We had
many laughs and good times in Grand Marais with Maurice, Doreen, Verna. Jim, Marilyn and their children. We will always remember him with smiles.

So sorry to hear of your Dad’s passing. I won’t be able to attend the “Celebration of his Life” but will be thinking of him.
