Gordon Evans wrote a sympathy message

“Jamie and Catherine: It's been many decades, but memories of Jim and Jean, my brother Mark's godparents, still resonate warmly. Visits between our families, during those Pointe Claire years, always involved a lot of laughter and, for the kids, a lot of fun (I've added a couple of photos from those days to this website) Later, after we moved to Toronto, we always looked forward to hearing of the Saunders when my Dad returned from a business trip to Truro. Jack is still with us at 94 years old and often talks of Jim and Jean. Please accept condolences from the Evans family for your loss. All the best; Jack, Gord and Mark Evans”
