Dear Norma:
On behalf of Doreen and myself, please accept our sincere condolences on Stan's passing. We also wish to pass on condolences from the entire congregation at St. James Anglican Church, Maitland. We very much enjoyed the time that you and Stan spent with all of us as friends as well as services that Stan officiated at our church in the absence of an incumbent Priest. Stan was a wonderful, warm and caring human being as well as a man of God. We know that he is now at peace and in the presence of his Lord and Saviour. We feel richer for having known him and look forward to our continuing friendship with you. God bless! Wayne & Doreen Thornhill.

Norma and Family,
We were very saddened to hear of Stan's passing!
Blessed we were to have had him as one of our Ministers when we lived in Brockville - he was was of the most down-to-earth clergymen we ever met, and if every Priest was like him, there would be many more followers!
Norma, you and he were a real team, because you really enhanced a beautiful atmosphere at Trinity Anglican!
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time and beyond.
We will be unable to visit as Don is having surgery Oct. 1st and will be in the hospital for a few days.
God Bless!
Don & Sheila

Dear Norma and Family: Sincere condolences at this time and we know that his suffering has gone and he is in the loving arms of the One he served and has the new life promised to him. I shall always be grateful for his friendship and guidance and for giving me the opportunity to be a Lay Minister with him; we shared many tears, much laughter and good times and shall miss him but am thankful he is at peace. I know that it has been difficult for you but you have coped well, fought the good fight and won the battle; you were by his side throughout the hardest times of his life as well as the good times....God bless you all..Much love..
