Arnold, Cheryl, Lorne, Linda and Family’s,
I am so saddened to hear this; I’ve known Letha all my life and considered her a dear friend. We had a lot of laughs and fun over the years, especially after she moved back to Nova Scotia. Ronnie and I visited Letha and Everett in Ontario in 1967…they took us to Woodbine Racetrack…our first experience at a horse race! We all had a good laugh when the horse I was rooting for, came in last!. I will miss her calls and visiting her when she was at Hillsview Acres. I took jigsaw puzzles to her and she really enjoyed working on the them. I will miss her. Rest easy, Letha. ❤️❤️
