United Church, Dafoe, on Saturday, November 17th at 2:00 p.m. Services were

were in care of Narfason's Funeral Chapel. Many friends and relatives
attended. Relatives included John's brother Ted and wife Helen of Dafoe,
His niece Brenda Reiter and his cousins, Lorne and Rose Wallace of Raymore.
John was my younger cousin who was injured while
serving overseas in world war two. He returned to Canada as an invalid and
lived in care homes for the rest of his life. My other cousin Ted Wallace, John's
younger brother, now resides in Saskatoon. John was only 11 years old
when I wrote my 1933 diaries and I neglected to mention him.
