Since 1975 Erroll was our family friend. The early years with family dinners including the 6 kids, and then just the 4 of us having many evenings together. During their retirement Erroll and Jim enjoyed many games of pool. They were a strength for each other through their illnesses. My children and I will always remember Erroll as a person who always arrived precisely on time, enjoyed having an extra cookie, and had a great sense of humour.
Goodbye my friend, goodbye for now.

My deepest condolences to Kari and the entire family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
