A Lasting Memory… It was just the way he would have wanted it! Last Thursday, Janet, Wendy, Patti and their families joined together in love and support for Doris as they all bid farewell to their much loved husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather, Ed Kornelson. As the Chapel started to fill with the many family and friends attending, everyone could see that Ed meant much to so many! Numerous tributes honouring Ed were shared by his family including a picture tribute offering a glimpse into the wonderful life that was his. As the service ended, Ed’s fellow Shriner’s formed an Honour Guard as the sound of Eric’s bagpipes echoed through the funeral home… a truly fitting tribute.
Forever loved & remembered,
By all that he knew,
In your heart he’ll always be
A lasting memory.
His Life Lived…
His Life Cherished…
His Life Honoured.
