So sorry to hear about Dalton.
Dalton was the kindest, most generous caring person. His cute little grin and his twitching nose, could light up any room. I always loved hearing all his stories of the past and all the people who lived in our neighbourhood years ago. Dalton has lived a wonderful life to a great age. May we all live like him! Rest in peace Dalton! ❤️❤️

Marg Baker says
November 18, 2025 at 9:53 pmI was surprised to read of your father’s passing today Rita under unfortunate circumstances. I never met him but Carl filled me in on lots of the people he grew up knowing and of course I remember you and your time working for Co-op with Carl. Living to be 95 in your own home is a remarkable accomplishment. It will be difficult for you and Murray and your children to know Dalton is gone but I’m sure the good memories will be with you always. That is what keeps me going just remembering all the good years Carl & I had together. With caring thoughts. Marg
