Melita & Family, My heartfelt condolences for your loss. I am so sorry to hear of Wilfred's passing. Being his secretary for a few years I got to see his witty and fun side as well as his serious Minister side. The first thing that comes to my mind is the time I went away for a few days and I left my car at your place so it would be safe just to come back and see that Wilfred had a For Sale sign on it! He certainly could be a prankster. He will be sadly missed. May he rest in God's love. Debbie & Tom

Aunt Melita, Steve, Susan & families, we are very saddened to hear of uncle Biff’s passing. He was truly one of a kind; gracious, intelligent, gentle, witty and a beautiful example of God’s love. I will cherish my memories of him, especially when we were honoured to have him emcee our wedding and participate in the ceremony. To have him pray over our marriage was so meaningful. I looked up to him as my uncle but also as a fellow clergy. He will always hold a special place in my heart.
I am holding all of you in prayer during these days. May the love of God surround you and His grace uphold you.
All our love, Lorraine, Juan & family.

Melita and Family, We are so saddened to hear of Rev. Pelley’s - Biff’s - passing. We had so much fun doing skits, plays and concerts, not to mention the many laughs at our Choir practises, at Curling United when he was Minister there. He was such a wonderful Minister. So many happy memories. I have known him since childhood and always thought so highly of him. He sat beside me my first time flying. He sensed I was nervous and made sure I was okay throughout the flight. His soft voice and sweet smile were so comforting. He was such a special person and will be very much missed. Sending our love and condolences, Sharon and John Parsons

Susan, my dear friend, I am sending you this message of love at this sad time for you and your family(s). Although I didn't know your dad, I can only imagine the kind-hearted, loving and always thinking of others kind of guy he must have been to have a daughter like you.
