    We were saddened to see that Anthony passed away. We thoroughly enjoyed his story telling and humour, especially ones which involved Argentia. Anthony gave it a great shot to try and reach 100 years. He will be smiling down on us now. RIP Anthony

    Uncle Pink, we have many memories of your funny stories, our great visits with you, sharing a beer, a glass of wine or a rye and ginger. You left your great mark and many memories on the lives of the many people you met throughout your life. You lived a great life which you enjoyed to the fullest. We will miss you especially when we visit the rock this year and not have a visit. Rest in peace. We love you and will always miss you but have great memories.
