Dear Lydia and family,
I am writing this Sunday afternoon, at a time when we, Steve’s Canadian cousins, should be with you; but, the border remains closed and so we stay at home. Now, when you think of us, I hope It is with fond memories of your last visit to Montreal in the summer of 2017.
Yes, at that time, while ALS was present in two family members, Steve and my Mom Helena, what I remember most vividly was their unfailing determination and spirit. My mother had lost her voice by then, and yet she still had us all laughing as she described childhood memories shared with her cousin Amelia, Steve’s mother.
I also recall that Steve’s appetite had made a miraculous recovery while at our place; you were amazed! And how happy we were when Steve came out for a dip in our hot tub.
Wonderful memories of a wonderful cousin.
Love from Montreal,
Fran and Paul (Chelsea too, woof)
& my Dad, Maurice
