Cardozo cooks on

Cranbrook contestant gets by top-to-tail task to make Top 10 SALLY MACDONALD Townsman Staff

Whoa, Nelly, that was a tough one.

Cranbrook’s MasterChef Canada contestant, Danielle Cardozo, was forced to cook with beef tongue in Monday’s seventh episode — and she came away smiling.

As this episode of the CTV reality cook-off series began, the home cook contestants were shown a picture of their

childhood selves and instructed by the judges to prepare a dish inspired by their memories of that age.

In Danielle’s photo, she was sitting on a dock holding a fish.

“That photo was taken at Loon Lake in Grasmere,” Danielle told the Townsman. “It was my family’s favourite camp spot that we went to each year.”

Cranbrook fetes Woman of the Year Gail Brown, 2014 Woman of the Year, was surrounded by friends, family and colleagues at a special event on Monday, March 3

Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff

Cranbrook acknowledged its Woman of the Year on Monday with a touching event at the Manual Training Centre.

Early childhood advocate Gail Brown was recognized in front of a crowd of friends, family and peers on March 3.

In her 30-plus years in Cranbrook, Brown has worked as an early childhood educator, a social worker and College teacher. She was manager of Children First, and was instrumental in bringing the Kootenay Child Development Centre from dream to reality. Now a school district trustee and a member of the Safe Communities Cranbrook committee, Brown is involved in the

Kootenay Children’s Festival, and Friends of Children, a local non-profit that helps families with sick children pay for medical-related travel costs.

Among those gathered to celebrate Brown’s accomplishments Monday was Gwen Noble, executive director of Community Connections Society of Southeast B.C. “She is very deserving of this recognition.

She has dedicated her work to the wellbeing of children in the East Kootenay,” said Noble.

“We are so fortunate to have Gail in our region. She has held that vision for our region of supporting children and families and helping them reach their full potential.”

It was a sentiment re-

peated by everyone who stood to congratulate Brown.

“She’s a visionary, she’s selfless, passionate and joyful, and above all she’s a strong advocate,” said long-time friend and colleague Denise Salanski, who made a surprise trip from Edmonton to attend the event. “When she sees something that needs to be done, she goes after it.

“I can’t even imagine how many little people and their families have sifted through her fingers in her time in Cranbrook.”

Patricia Whalen, who took over from Brown as manager of Children First and also sits with her on the school board, joked that she thinks of Brown as being like Google because of all

the information she has to share.

Pat Chisholm, manager of East Kootenay Friends of Children, applauded Brown’s empathy and compassion for families with sick children.

When Gail herself stood to accept the Woman of the Year award, she was typically humble.

“I do not work alone.

It’s only because of the people I work with that things get done,” she said.

“I’m the one with the crazy ideas and the gift of the gab.”

This was the 30th anniversary of Cranbrook’s Woman of the Year award, an initiative of the Cranbrook club of the Canadian Federation of University Women.

Danielle survives ‘tongue-lashing’ to cook on Continued from page 1

Courtesy CTV/bell media

Danielle Cardozo gingerly lowers her beef tongue into the pressure cooker on Episode 7 of MasterChef Canada.

Although her dish wasn’t shown in the episode, Danielle cooked a lentil and pancetta salad with spiced prawn.

“I loved the dish,” she said. “Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to impress the judges. But I am still proud of it.”

The best dish was prepared by Ontario’s Eric Chong, who made Chinese barbecue pork with noodles. For winning the challenge, Eric was safe from the next elimination challenge, and he was given a preview of the food his fellow contestants would be tasked with preparing: a top to tail Alberta cow.

What’s more, Eric was allowed to choose which of his competitors cooked with which part of the animal.

Straightaway, he singled out Danielle and Kelowna’s Kaila Klassen for the two most vom-inducing cuts: the tongue and the brains.

“I thought for sure Eric would have my back,” Danielle said. “We were pretty tight throughout the competition, and still are. I talk to him every day. When I saw that he chose tongue for me, I knew he had a

target on me. I had no clue why my close friend would do that, except that he obviously saw me as competition.

“During the competition, he told me he wasn’t gunning for me and he gave me what was remaining from his choices. I laughed (Monday), as he texted me and apologized. He knew the truth would come out that he was gunning for me.

I have serious respect for Eric; he played the game well in both a culinary sense and a social sense.

How can you get mad at good game play?”

Meanwhile, faced with a cut of beef she’d never cooked before, Danielle was freaking out.

“I was scared. Straight up scared. Beef tongue? Really, Eric? I had no clue.

Never seen it or touched it before in my life. I tried to take that awful layer of skin off it and it wouldn’t budge.

I could barely cut through it.

“The only thing I knew was that tough meat can be cooked in a pressure cooker in a significantly reduced amount of time. The problem? I have never used a pressure cooker before. I

have to laugh because I think I had the judges a little nervous. I had no clue what I was doing with that piece of equipment, and used improperly it can be extremely dangerous.”

“I was scared. Straight up scared. Beef tongue?

I had no clue. Never seen it or touched it before in my life. I tried to take that awful layer of skin off it and it wouldn’t budge. I could barely cut through it.”

But thankfully, she managed to pull it off, serving slices of beef tongue beside a beet salad. While it wasn’t an inspiring dish, judge Claudio Aprile said the tongue was cooked well.

Danielle was safe.

Things didn’t look so rosy for three of the other home cooks who had arguably three of the easiest cuts. Dale Kuda’s tomahawk steak was blue raw when he served it; Mike Green’s liver had oxidised and turned green, so the

judges wouldn’t try it; and Dora Cote had made a stew from the beef cheeks that Aprile told her looked like barf. In the end, it was Dora – who has been somewhat of a nemesis to Danielle in the competition – who was cut from the program.

“I, like everyone else, was surprised to see Dora go on the beef challenge,” said Danielle. “An Alberta plumber goes home on Alberta beef — there’s something a little ironic about that!

“For anyone who knows me, it’s no surprise that Dora and I weren’t exactly best friends. So was I sad to see her go? No, not at all. At the same time, I didn’t see her as competition, and you’re always hoping someone strong will go home.”

Meanwhile, Danielle continues to prepare her dishes at the Heid Out in Cranbrook each Monday night for a popular viewing party.

“I served both my prawn, lentil, and pancetta salad; as well as my roasted beet and beef tongue salad.

They were a hit. I can’t wait to serve next week’s dish to the community again,” she said.

B.C. mining on display at conference Continued from page 1

“The main reason I’m here is to support the mining companies who are here, trying to find investors, essentially,” Bennett said.

“Half the people here are in the mining industry, the other half are in the financial industry.”

Bennett last attended the annual conference in 2006, when he was Minister of State for Mines.

This time around, he’s found there’s a different attitude towards towards the B.C. mining industry.

“I’d say we’re number one in Canada from what I’ve seen,” he said.

“There’s certainly been a change from when I was last here in 2006.

And I’m understanding that change to be related to decisions that other provinces have made around their policies. They’ve really alienated the mining industry in some ways,

similar to what happened in B.C. in the 1990s.

“Whereas we’ve taken this approach that it’s constant improvement. We make changes, it gets better, then a few years later we find we have to make additional changes. We are constantly trying to improve our permitting process. I’m pleasantly surprised that B.C. is as popular as we are.

“The organizers of the conference actually put me at the head table for the big lunch (Monday). I was the only provincial minister there.

They’re giving us a chance to feature the province, and they’re impressed with what we’ve done in terms of our policies.”

Some of the talk at the conference concerns the federal government’s rejection — once again — of the pro-

posed New Prosperity gold and copper mine project near Fish Lake. It has been rejected once again by the federal Ministry of Environment, in the latest of a long back-and-forth between Taseko Mines Ltd. and the Canadian government.

An independent review panel found environmental damage to the Fish Lake water supply would be irreparable. This is the second proposal Taseko has put forward for the open pit mine, roughly 125 kilometres southwest of Williams Lake.

Bennett offered his comments on that situation: “The international mining industry is really plugged in,” he said.

“They know what’s happening in every jurisdiction in the world. And there’s a lot of disappointment.

“But I also think the federal cabinet was real-

ly boxed in by the federal environmental assessment panel. When your panel says there’s going to be significant adverse environmental impact if you allow this mine to go ahead, really, what’s cabinet going to do?

“The question for me is not the decision the feds made. I’m disappointed by it, but how is that a federal process comes to the conclusion that you can’t do something that we’re already doing? We already have these mines operating, and they don’t pollute lakes that are two kilometres. How can the panel come to this kind of conclusion?”

Taseko Mines has said it will apply again.

“Minister Oliver did speak about it this morning, and indicated they’d like to see it come back for another look,” Bennett said. Joe Oliver is the federal minister of Natural Re-

sources.

Bennett is also in Toronto to raise awareness of the Northwest Transmission Line (NTL), which will open up northwest B.C. Once complete this summer, the line will support access to mineral deposits and the development of new mines. This includes the new $500 million Red Chris mine project — one of the largest copper-gold deposits in the world — scheduled to open this summer.

“On the conference floor right now there are 50 B.C. companies who are invested in the northern part of the province,” Bennett said. “Given the interest of these B.C. companies who are here, we (the B.C. government) should help them tell their story to potential investors — though investors should be aware of the new power line.”

paper version - will be available starting at 8:30 a.m. on Monday, March 10, 2014 with the survey closing at 4:30 p.m. on Friday, March 28, 2014. The survey is intended to provide residents an opportunity to assess the effectiveness of the current deer management program and provide input to Council on future direction of this initiative.

The last time the public was surveyed about urban deer was September 2010.

“The 2010 survey was conducted prior to the City actually conducting the culls of 2011 and 2013,” said

Mayor Wayne Stetski.

“It’s time to check with our citizens to see where they would like us to go in the future with Cranbrook’s resident deer population.”

Residents can access the survey online on the City’s website – www.cranbrook.ca – and click on ‘Urban Deer Resident Survey’ under City of Cranbrook Links on the homepage. For residents without access to a computer, printed versions of the survey will be available for pick up at reception at City Hall during regular business hours.

Residents request-

ing a paper copy must provide photo identification with a City of Cranbrook mailing address to be able to get a survey. Completed surveys can be mailed back to City Hall or dropped off by the 4:30 p.m. Friday, March 28, 2014 deadline. Postmarks will not be accepted. Completed surveys must be received at City Hall by the deadline date. Late submissions will be disqualified.

Staff will compile all the survey responses and results into a report for presentation to Council later in the spring.

B.C. teachers begin strike vote C anadian Press

Teachers across B.C. have begun taking a strike vote in hopes the move will pressure the government to offer what the B.C. Teachers’ Federation calls a fair contract.

Results of the threeday vote will be released Thursday night, after which the teachers’ union has 90 days to initiate job action.

The vote comes as union and government

bargaining agents continue talks, though BCTF president Jim Iker says the two sides are far from an agreement after more than 40 negotiating sessions.

Iker says the government is refusing to restore class size and composition into the agreement despite a B.C. Supreme Court decision saying legislation to strip those provisions in 2002 was unconstitutional.

But Peter Cameron,

the government’s chief negotiator, says the teachers’ union is mischaracterizing the ruling, which says class size and composition should be discussed at the bargaining table.

He says the government has put forward a proposal suggesting teachers and principals decide on class size and composition according to students’ needs rather than having a one-sizefits-all formula.

lright. Woo-hoo. We’re partying now.

With the kind of enthusiasm normally reserved for sorting Phillips head screws from flat head screws, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer last week publicly vetoed SB 1062, legislation that would provide legal cover to businesses denying services based on the operator’s religious beliefs. The return of Jim Crow with a cactus beat.

Yes, the finger-jabbing governess banged down the brakes of the bigot bill. And the disappointment rumbling through the evangelical community caused snakes to be mishandled all the way to Eastern Tennessee.

Give the lady credit. She hemmed. She hawed. She deliberated. Took her time like a molasses coated snail slogging up Everest against the wind in the dead of winter.

The right thing was done; for the wrong reasons. The same way deciding not to drink that eighth beer was a smart move, whether the cause was self-restraint or misplacing the bottle opener under the front seat.

Mostly it was the threat of another statewide economic boycott including the possibility of losing a second Super Bowl that did the trick. Once again, the NFL trumps

religion. Of course, if those darn liberals hadn’t put up such a stink, she would have signed it so fast it would make a roadrunner’s head spin, mid beep-beep.

Ironically, Brewer’s painstakingly lackadaisical response was responsible for ratcheting up the backlash that inflamed the country. She inadvertently gave the Will press time to trumpet the And the resulting Durst story. uproar bodes as well for the umpteen other states considering similar legislation as a dead gila monster head in your Frosted Flakes.

This is what happens when the tourist industry, the business community, the state’s two GOP U.S. Senators and even some of the bill’s co-sponsors turn against it. With friends like these, who needs enemas?

You’d think that vetoing a bill that sanctioned discrimination would be a no-brainer, but no-brainers aren’t quite the sure thing in Arizona. This is the state famous for voting against recognizing Martin Luther King, Jr.’s birthday as a holiday and encouraging local police to stop anybody with a tan on both their arms.

Perhaps Arizona legislators are unaware that religions other than Christianity

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

exist, because depending on the faith of the business owner, this bill would have allowed folks to refuse service not just for sexual orientation but for sporting nail polish, fastening pants with zippers or eating shellfish. The burning hunger for desert shellfish having been dealt with many millennia ago.

Not wearing a hat offends some gods, while the wearing of hats offends others.

The gods, they are sartorially conflicted.

Suspected of engaging in premarital sex?

No ice cream for you! Divorced patrons can purchase their organic rutabagas somewhere else, thank you very much.

Wear a turban? Don’t need a couch. Customers would need to take a urine test every time they dropped something off at the dry cleaners.

With every piece of ludicrous legislation, it becomes increasingly apparent that AZ — the postal abbreviation for the Grand Canyon State — stands for “Angry Zenophobes.” And yes, xenophobe is actually spelled with an X, but the insensible and intolerant denizens of Arizona are probably unaware of that. Arizona: the American Uganda. It’s not the hate, it’s the stupidity.

Kootenay Ice shut out by Rebels in 4-0 loss TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

The Kootenay Ice were shut out for the sixth time this season in a 4-0 loss to the Red Deer Rebels on Tuesday night at Western Financial Place.

It’s the second straight loss for the Ice, which returned from a threegame road trip into Saskatchewan over the weekend, falling 4-2 in Prince Albert on Saturday after collecting a pair of wins.

Kootenay was two players short of a complete lineup, missing five players to injury. The club also refused to comment or update the situation with sniper Tim Bozon, who, according to social media chatter, was hospitalized in Saskatoon during the road trip.

The Rebels came into Cranbrook with three wins in their last 10 games, and were scrappy right from the start as they fought for one of the last remaining playoff spots in the Eastern Con-

ference.

Red Deer scored a trio of goals in the first period, and rode the lead till the end of the game, sealing it off with an empty netter.

Brooks Maxwell opened the scoring less than five minutes in the first frame, while Wyatt Johnson went bar down in the slot 10 minutes later.

Aspen Sterzer made it a three-goal deficit for Kootenay, sniping the short side top corner on a backdoor pass during a Red Deer powerplay.

Ice assistant coach Jay Henderson was not happy with the effort in the first 20 minutes.

“Lots of silly mistakes, to put it bluntly,” Henderson said. “I don’t think we were very good, we were flat footed, and they’re a desperate hockey club. They were playing desperate and they out-competed us and outworked us in every aspect of the game.”

On the flip side, it was a great start Red Deer,

which are tied with the Prince Albert Raiders for eighth place in the conference.

Sterzer, a Rebels forward who hails from Canal Flats, said the win was a team effort.

“They’re a little short staffed, which is obviously tough, but we just came into this game and it’s desperation time for us right now,” Sterzer said. “We’re trying to make the playoffs—most lines on the team were going tonight.”

Rebels goaltender Patrik Bartosak was brilliant in keeping the Kootenay Ice off the scoreboard. Sam Reinhart, Zach Franko and Jaedon Descheneau all had quality chances to score, but the Red Deer netminder shut the door every time.

Henderson also said the Ice didn’t elevate their game after digging themselves into a threegoal hole.

“Obviously, we came out pretty flat. I didn’t like our compete in the

first period, and it did improve slightly, but not to where it has to be,” Henderson said. “…I didn’t like the effort and again, we can use the excuse that we’re short on bodies, but that doesn’t work for me.”

The two teams held each other scoreless through the second period and most of the third.

Ice goaltender Mackenzie Skapski, who made 29 saves, vacated his net with three minutes remaining in the game for an extra attacker, but Rhyse Dieno scored the token empty net goal for a 4-0 final.

NOTES: Ice captain Sam Reinhart was named the WHL Player of the Month on Tuesday. Reinhart tallied 10 goals, 22 assists in 13 games in February Kootenay Ice Anti-Bullying Night Take a stand with the Kootenay Ice on Friday for their Anti-Bullying Night when they face the visiting Medicine Hat Ti-

The three winning schools will be selected by anonymous judges based on which ones are the loudest, get on board with pink apparel and bring the most spirit to the building.

Additionally, Western Financial Group has supplied pink foam pucks that will be tossed out onto the ice during the second intermission for the opportunity to win more prizes.

Canucks trade Luongo to Florida Panthers

The Vancouver Canucks have traded goaltender Roberto Luongo to the Florida Panthers.

Luongo’s unhappiness in Vancouver since the 2011 Stanley Cup final included being usurped as the starter by Cory Schneider, demanding to be traded, complaining that his US$64-million, 12-year contract “sucks” seeing Schneider being dealt away.

Coach John Tortorella added another chapter by choosing not to start the 34-year-old in last weekend’s Heritage Classic, opting instead to go with backup Eddie Lack.

Now Lack could split duties with Jacob Markstrom, acquired from the Panthers as part of the Luongo deal along with forward Shawn Matthias.

ECHL-based Forward Steve Anthony also heads to Florida.

NUMBER ONE: The EKVC 15U girls played very well this past weekend, placing 1st in Division 2 at the Premier 1 South tournament in Calgary. The weekend started with some tough competition in the their pool. Strong defense and killer serves shocked the Jr Dinos as they won by only four points and three points. The Jr. Dinos went on to place 2nd in division 1.

Can West took the win after winning the second and third set. (25-22, 19-25, 8-15) Can West went on to place 4th in Division 1. EKVC’s third place took us into Division 2 playoffs where they cruised through Game One against the Jaguars.

They comfortably won the first set against the ACVC Reign (25-17). The second set was a bit of a struggle but they pulled through with a 25-20 victory. In the finals EKVC met TSA Gray. First set began with five unreturnable serves and that set the tempo for the rest of the match, 25-12 and 25-13 were the final scores, with both lines playing extremely well.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) A friend whom you might not have heard from in a while could help perk up your day in the afternoon. Use your intuition when making a decision involving your funds. Be as clear as possible when dealing with others.

Confirm what you are hearing.

Tonight: Your treat.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You tend to blossom in situations where others might get frustrated. You might be used to someone being rather cold and difficult. Do not internalize this person’s behavior or words. A boss might not openly compliment you, but he or she thinks highly of you. Tonight: All smiles.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Know that you might need to get a little perspective on a situation.

Your best bet would be not to say too much and just observe more.

Imagine what it must be like to be in the other person’s shoes.

Detach as much as you can. Tonight: Let it all hang out.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Zero in on priorities. A meeting could be more important than you realize. Once you see the discussion evolve and witness the immediate results, you will gain a sense of appreciation. A close friend might want to talk. Make time for this person. Tonight: Opt for togetherness.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Follow your instincts. You might want to head in a different direction and follow a new path.

Others could openly disagree with you. Once you feel that you have answered their questions, you’ll be able to relax. Let go of the issue for now. Tonight: Take a break.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You’ll have the opportunity to accomplish a lot. Detach and get opinions from people who do not think like you do. Once you recognize the myriad of possibilities, you will need to revisit the matter at hand. Tonight: Put on some great music, or drop in on a jam session.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Listen to what is being shared by

Tundra

a trusted pal -- there are nuggets of important information there.

Build on an existing premise, rather than begin a new one.

Remember that everyone is entitled to his or her opinion. Tonight: Visit and chat with a loved one.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could decide that enough has come down your path. Understand that it is up to you to state your boundaries; otherwise, how would others know?

Share what is happening on a more open level with a close friend. This person’s feedback will be helpful. Tonight: Happy at home.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Be aware of what is happening in your immediate circle. Not everyone will agree with you, so keep an eye on someone who is prone to backstabbing. You can talk until you are blue in the face, but reconciliation is unlikely until later. Tonight: Make exercising a must.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Honor your feelings by coming up with a creative solution for

a child or loved one. You will see how grateful this person is.

What he or she might not realize is how relieved you will be to get past this problem. Do not rehash a routine matter. Tonight: Around good music.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Someone might become stubborn in a conversation. Know when to pull back and say less; otherwise, it could be much harder to rectify the situation. If a situation is as you see it, time will be your ally. Tonight: Sink into the sofa, watch a favorite show or indulge in a relaxing pastime.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Examine alternatives with more care. Your innate ability to see the other side of an issue and find a way to make everyone happy will emerge. A partner could be exhibiting crankiness rather than disagreement; he or she needs an outlet. Tonight: Hang out with friends.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: You printed a letter from “Concerned in Galesburg, Ill.,” about photographing naked babies. I have a slightly different problem, but it’s in a similar vein.

I have a toddler grandson. Maybe I’m just old-fashioned, but our daughter-in-law has close to 500 pictures of the boy naked, from birth to his second birthday. She also has videos of him naked in the bathroom, recording him for several minutes while he’s getting ready to take his bath.

My son and I have talked about this, and he, too, finds this to be odd behavior. A few pictures would be normal, but 500 seems excessive for anyone. Neither of us has talked to her about this. She has since taken the boy and moved out. We do not consider this pornography, but we cannot understand why there are so many photos. Can you help? -Concerned Grandmother Dear Grandmother: We would be concerned, too. New parents often take hundreds of pictures of their children, but 500 naked photos and videos is excessive by any standard. Add to that your daughter-inlaw’s taking the boy and leaving the home, and we worry that she is using these photos for purposes other than a personal record.

There may be nothing going on, but your son needs to be vigilant. He should visit with the boy often and not be afraid to ask his wife about the photos and videos. He also should seek legal counsel if they do not reconcile soon.

Dear Annie: I am a highly educated individual who speaks English as a second language. Sometimes I have to deal with customers over the telephone. There have been instances in which I have been told, “Your English is terrible” or “Call me back when you learn the language.”

It’s not as if these individuals have a Ph.D. in English. Their grammatical mistakes are horrible. Just because English is their first language does not mean they have finished elementary school. Who are they to pass judgment over foreigners speaking English?

Annie, what should people in my situation tell these very rude people? I doubt they understand the meaning of the word “xenophobia.” There are many hardworking, productive people in this country with an accent. Please tell your readers to try to understand how difficult it is to learn another language and to stop being so disrespectful to us. -- Sick of Xenophobes in Jeffersonville, Ind. Dear Indiana: Agreed, and we hope our readers are paying attention. These rude people are not commenting on your language skills or your intelligence. They are telling you that your accent is too thick for them to understand what you are saying. Of course, this doesn’t excuse them.

The polite response when you don’t understand someone is, “Excuse me. I didn’t catch that. Could you please repeat it more slowly?” There is absolutely no reason to be insulting. When faced with such disrespect, your best response is to be polite and patient.

Dear Annie: I was very touched by the letter from “Miserable Forever,” whose husband is emotionally and financially abusive.

You advised her to get out of the marriage and contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline.

I would like to add that she may want to contact her local legal aid office. Also, most states have an attorney referral service, and in some states, attorneys are required to take cases pro bono (free of charge). She may want to look at these resources and see whether she can find an attorney who will take her case for free or at low cost. -- Martha Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

In Memoriam In memory of

~New Location~

ED HARDER March 5, 2010

We thought of you today, But that is nothing new.

We thought of you yesterday, And will tomorrow too.

We think of you in silence, And make no outward show.

For what it meant to lose you, Only those who love you know.

Remebering you is easy, We do it everyday.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the heartache of losing you, That will never go away.

Love Linda and families
