Hello Marion and Bill,
Linda and I are saddened to hear of Myron's passing. I fondly recall his welcoming personality whenever we met and his inspiring if not entertaining stories about the challenges of the furniture business. He represents a special breed of man whose generation worked hard and sacrificed so much to give his family a good start in life. Myron was always proud of his family; how he used to brag about his grandchildren! Our hope for you is that the passage of time will replace today's sadness with special memories of your dad and his many accomplishments. Our condolences.

Mom and Dad and I were saddened to hear of the passing of Myron. Your parents were such wonderful neighbours for so many years.
You may have heard that my parents are now living at AMICA at Erin Mills. They are getting along fine although both are suffering from some memory loss and Dad is having mobility issues and now uses a cane or a walker. They send thier regrets that they did not feel well enough to attend the service today. Please be assured that our thoughts are with you at this most difficult time.

Life is not measured by the breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away.
Myron was like my own grandfather to me. He taught me how to become a better person and look at one’s life from different angels.
I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love.
Please convey my regards to one and all in the family.
Someone so special like Myron - can never be forgotten.
