Sheila Leahy - Moose Jaw, Sk. : I remember both Clarence and Pansy when I worked at St. Andrew's as the caretaker. They use to come to play shuffleboard there.  They would always stop to chat for a few minutes. Pansy would always tell a little joke and Clarence seemed like a quiet gentle soul.  I would like to send my deepest sympathy to the family.  I am sure you have many wonderful memories. 

Don, Dianne Thompson & families - Saskatoon Sk.: Evelee, Daryll, Shirley, Allen & families Our most sincere sympathy on the loss of your dad. May he rest in peace with Aunt Pansy. God will give you the strength to get through this difficult time. It is so hard to believe that we have now lost that entire generation of the "Bien Family".  Your dad's singing was such a joy to listen to. Your parents were always so kind to me when we visited. I shall remember them. We are so very sad that we are not able to attend this service. Mom cannot make that trip now either. Our Love
