IN MEMORIAM EDGERTON, Wilkinson November 23rd, 1996 Treasured still, with love sincere, The memory of one we loved so dear, Fondest thoughts are ever entwined, In beautiful memories left behind. Love all the Family CARDS OF THANKS ON behalf of the children of the late Joanne Daquano: Dylan, Dean and Darcy; and on behalf of all the Daquano and d'Entremont families, I would like to express my thanks to the wonderful community of Georgetown for their outpouring of love and support during our greatest need for both. From the teachers of St. Brigid, St. Catherine of Alexandria and Christ the King; to the players, parents, coaches, convenors and executive of the Georgetown Minor Hockey Association; to the Irish dancers from McGinley; to all the nurses and staff in the Complex Care Centre at Georgetown Hospital; to Dr.'s Paul and Debbie Zeni; to our parish priests Father Dave Wynen and Father Adrian Lee; to all the hundreds of friends and family and strangers alike who have sent flowers, cards and donations, you have made our sorrow so much easier to handle. Our Angel shines her love on all of us from above, and I express my thanks to all of you by shining the love of my family on this community. God Bless each and every one of you.
