Condolences (45)

1. Carolyn and family. I don’t know if you remember me or not, but I worked with Sherman for a short period in 1989 at Esso Research and I was out to your home for dinner a few times. I had been trying to reach Sherman by Facebook but wasn’t successful. I now see that he has passed on. Please accept my condolences. Sherman was an inspiration to me in the short time I was in his company. He was a very good man. I do hope you have been able to find peace since his passing.

2. My deepest sympathy to the family, We were good friend through High school he had a wonderful sense of humour

3. We were so sorry to hear of Sherm’s passing, but we know he is in glory with Jesus now. We fondly remember all the wonderful adventures we had with you and Sherm through the years– bike rides through the countryside, short trips, concerts, picnics at Canaterra Park, playing games at your table… and all the delicious meals you cooked for us! We had hoped to get together again to resume our adventurers, but it was not to be. However, we know your children will be there for you now as ever.

4. Dear Carolyn, My sincere condolences to you. Thank you for introducing me to Sherman through the various social events at work. His smile and his strong handshake are what I will always remember. While I also extend to you my sympathy, please know as well that Pat and I hold you, your family, and Sherman, close in prayer. Marshall Kern

5. I always enjoyed our time together at Imperial and the amazing enthusiasm with which Sherm embraced all aspects of life! Below is a link to a few photos of Sherm (and others) in a dropbox folder. Duncan Bristow

14. Saddened to hear of Sherman’s passing. It wasn’t long ago we (as a neighbourhood) were invited to celebrate his “40 years of farming and their marriage.” It was a wonderful evening. Sherman and Carolyn were leaving for a more leisurely lifestyle. There was never a five minute visit, as topics of discussion needed much more time! This often might include tea and muffins. We helped each other to our mutual benefit. The farm is still referred to as the “Parr farm”, and will be for a long time. Sincere condolences to Carolyn, Jason, Brent, Lauren and their families.

16. My condolences to all the family- I went to WOIT with Sherman and he was good friends of my sister and brother in law who lived in Brigden years ago.
    He came south a few years ago and through my sister we connected and he came to see me where I live full time in Naples , FL.
    We had a great time reminiscing- he was very interested in my 1965 Mustang convertible I bought in 1965 – the year we graduated together. I still have it. He will be missed by many- Peter Knox

17. Our condolences to Carolyn and family. Edythe (late Ross) Wilson and family.

    Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. We were extremely saddened to learn of Sherman’s passing.
    In a different time we would be with you to extend our sympathy. Unfortunately the world has changed but one of our blessings is to be able to recall the friends that we have made over the years. The Parr family was a wonderful part of our years in Sombra. Sherman was a great neighbour and we treasure his memory and the times spent with each of you.
    We pray that your faith and memories of a special man will keep you strong as you find strength from our Heavenly Father and in each other.

He also provided some really good Spring lamb. Carolyn, Janet, and all the Parr and related families, please accept my condolences. Sherm will be missed.
