To the Davies family:
We will miss that friendly smile, the stories, and the hospitality. We will miss that phone call around 6 or 7 pm in the evening at the cottage asking if we’ve seen Bill anywhere today! We will miss a dear friend and a wonderful, kind-hearted person. They are not easy to find these days. Such was Pat Davies.
Remembering the oh-so-many good times with the Davies always brings a smile to our faces. Their kindness, integrity and wisdom were gifts for all to share. And virtues for all of us to strive for; a model with which to shape our lives. Now, they are together again.
The thought crossed our minds that if their lives were a ship sailing adventurously around the world, it would be Bill who did the maintenance on the boat, but it would be Pat who was steering it. And always in her quiet, unassuming manner.
If there ever was proof that the phrase “Behind every great man, is a great woman” is true, it was in the example set by Pat and Bill Davies. We are so fortunate to have met you, spent time with you, laughed with you and, most of all, had the privilege of calling you our friends. But we still don’t think that ALL the pickerel in Loon Bay are yours.
We have missed you dearly Bill. And now, we will miss you dearly Pat. Until we meet again.
Sincerely, Sue and Peter Olynyk, Geoff and Jackie Olynyk & family, Steve and Judy Olynyk & family
