On line memories and condolences at www.jjpatterson.ca If I should ever leave you whom I love to go along the silent way, grieve not, nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk of me as if I were beside you there. (I'd come – I'd come, could I but find a way! But would not tears and grief be barriers?) As a memorial tribute, a tree will be planted in Memory Woods. A tree grows – memories live. 11006694
