After watching the service online, if you can leave a guest message to let the family know you have joined into the service, that would be greatly appreciated.
Dear Marie, Kim, Karen and Joanne, thank you for allowing the Wilson family into your warm friendship. We have wonderful memories of coming to Prince St; Willowbank Rd and Stirling Way. As a telephonist at the trunk exchange, I met Don who was one of the Supervisors. He was known as “Caeser” by the telephonists. Kev became friends when working with Don at Royal Mail House. Meeting you and the girls at a Postal Institute Family Sports night our friendship grew from then on. What a privilege to know Don and his precious family all these years. Wishing you love and comfort at this time. Hoping to see you in the near future. Much love to Don’s girls and the family. Kevin, Sue and the Wilson’s
Deepest Sympathy to Marie, Kim, Karen, Joanne and families on the sad passing of Don.
Our Purtill family have many fond memories of the times with spent with you all at Prince Street whenever we came to visit the Hemphils. We will always remember Don for his quit whit and for always making us laugh.
