The obituary for Ronnie in 1999 mentioned the son "S" in Kanata but in an obituary for someone else in 2011 - the Hardakers (S and S (maiden surname Hallebach) - including there son -  grandson A) wrote in the guest book in another obituary under a Niagara On The Lake Address  ???

"S" may have remarried to "L" since the death of Ronnie (as mentioned in the obituary of Doreen)

The son of S snd S - grandson "A" marriage in Kanata - 19 September 2015 (can be found on social media)

Many thanksl.  Researching for my husband and he is thrilled to hear all this information, especially reading Ronnie's obituary (his mother's cousin).  My mother in law was close to the other family members, Ronnie's siblings, throughout her life (in fact they came to my wedding!) ; all passed away now.  Good to hear about the family in Canada - I have recently come in contact with another 'cousin' of our generation and would like to share with them also. Thank you all

It is so funny reading your posts trying so hard to help but also so hard not to name any people that are possibly still alive....brilliant !

And who's to say they aren't?? I've had suspicions about "Sandra" for years now. ;D ;D
