'There weren’t many single fathers in the early 80’s, but Herb was one of them. What he lacked in culinary skills (it’s a miracle his boys didn’t succumb to scurvy given Herb’s dinner rotation of Heinz pork & beans, hot dogs, and frozen dinners) he more than made up for in selflessness and devotion. His boys never missed a single practice, game, appointment, or event.'

'The list of things Sarah couldn’t do is short, and the list of things she didn’t try is even shorter. Sarah was once quoted as saying “life has no romance without risk”. She lived life to the fullest and wanted the same for everyone.'

'She was an active member of the Royal City Rockets motorcycle club in Vancouver and was very proud of it. She also travelled alot in her later years.'

'Braulia loved everyone and everyone loved her. Blessed with a sunny disposition, she never complained, no matter what life threw at her. Her smile was her trademark.'
