We sadly announce the passing of Clarence Eagleson.

At Clarence’s request there will be no funeral.

In memory of Clarence we ask that you- “Love your neighbour as yourself” Mark 12:31. Lend a helping hand. Be Kind.

A song Clarence often sang “When I take my vacation in Heaven, What a wonderful time that will be” Clarence (Dad), you finally get your forever ‘vacation’  with your Lord and Saviour.

…and from another song he sang,

“Goodbye, so long it’s been good to know you, But I’ve got to be moving along”

Til we meet again!
