From your friends in Ontario:
When Blaine and Danielle lived in Stoney Creek, Ontario, Blaine and Danielle were our neighbours and we became the best of friends. We had a lot of laughs and created a lot of great memories in our perspective backyards. We kept in touch after Blaine moved to the East Coast. We visited them at Canoe Cove which is where Irene and I met Viv. My daughter, Annette, and Danielle became the best of friends as well. Their friendship was so strong that Annette had Danielle as her maid of honour at her wedding to Ed. The distance between the two friends had not affected the closeness that they shared and still share today.
Blaine will always be remembered for his warmth, his laughter and his kindness. He will always hold a special place in our hearts.
Love,
Richard and the late Irene Hipkiss, Annette and Ed Paprocki, and Sean Hipkiss
