No One Knows<br />
They say there is a reason,<br />
they say that time will heal.<br />
But neither time nor reason,<br />
will change the way we feel.<br />
For no one knows the heartache,<br />
that lies behind our smiles.<br />
No one knows how many times,<br />
we’ve broken down and cried.<br />
We want to tell you something,<br />
so there won’t be any doubt.<br />
You’re so wonderful to think of,<br />
but so hard to be without.<br />
Love from your wife,<br />
Margaret and family.<br />

Australia were as nice! Thank you.<br />

a good neighbour and making<br />
Christmas special for us. G & P.<br />
Jeers to people who insist on<br />
parking in the disabled spots in<br />

are only going to be “5 minutes.”<br />
Cheers to those who remind these<br />
offenders of their wrong doing<br />
even when the offenders become<br />
rude!<br />

for the incredible annual birthday<br />
bash. I loved it! From, Strong side.<br />

meal out for that much!<br />

Cheers the Monkey’s Uncle for<br />
making sure that a very sweet<br />
little girl got her Calico Critter<br />
Hedgehogs after a playful golden<br />
retriever chewed hers up. That<br />
is why I shop local. Outstanding<br />
service!<br />
Cheers to all the businesses that<br />
supported the recent Winter<br />
Marketing Event in Calgary.<br />

our success.<br />
Cheers to Josh and Vic for ensuring<br />
we all made it home safely. Much<br />

yield at the yield sign. You gave me<br />
the excuse to test my winter tires.<br />

now?<br />
Cheers to Darlene C. for a great girl’s<br />
weekend!<br />
Jeers to whoever decided it is<br />
okay to outsource all of our jobs<br />
to people from other countries.<br />
Nothing against them, but locals<br />
should have first, second and third<br />
crack at those jobs. Homeless In<br />
Invermere.<br />
Jeers to those who destroyed Camp<br />
12. If you had enough times to<br />
chainsaw a structure into pieces<br />

it up and take it away. Your actions<br />
are not doing the bush any favours.<br />
Cheers for Nick Berzins and also the<br />
CVCC! You speak for an enormous<br />
silent and disappointed majority.<br />

so hard to bring Canfor back to<br />
Radium and all those families who<br />

are fewer food hamper applications<br />
this year, and thanks goes to Dee<br />
and her efforts!<br />

You have superb customer service<br />
skills and you always go above<br />

appreciated. CB<br />

loss program and just in time for<br />
Christmas!<br />
Cheers to our Rockies for coming<br />

You make me so happy! Let the<br />
birthday week continue.<br />
