Pier Gianni Sirtori
non riesco proprio a credere alla triste notizia. Giunge come un fulmine a ciel sereno. Sono veramente affranto e vorrei esserti vicino. Cora era veramente straordinaria, e ricordo ancora, come fosse ieri, alcuni felici e vitali momenti passati insieme, come alla Fiera durante il salone del ciclo o a Cernusco lungo il Naviglio e sul campo di Softball, o ancora a tavola nei locali dell'Unico. Ti porgo anche le sentite condoglianze di Gianni Berti, che è rimasto molto turbato e vorrebbe poterti dire alcune parole di conforto. Ho molto apprezzato le belle immagini che hai dedicato a Cora sul sito. E' coma se fosse ancora lì con te nel lontano Paese dove vi pensavo sempre insieme e felici. Un saluto e un ricordo. Gianni Sirtori Un abbraccio anche da Emilia.
Barbara Terfloth
My deepest sympathies. Your tribute to Cora's memory is wonderful--I phoned Amy to let her know and to direct her to your site. I saw Cora briefly at the Carlton Bakery a few weeks ago. She was cheerful as always and my only regret is that we did not chat a bit longer--we always forget to make time and time is not something we can take back. Hope that you keep well and that you are supported by a warm and close group of friends and family during this difficult time. Barbara
Paola Sconzo
nel dicembre 1996 Cora mi regalò un libro molto bello: "Storia di una gabbianella e del gatto che le insegnò a volare" di Sepulveda. Era un libro, mi spiegò, che lei amava molto. Lo lessi subito e piacque tanto anche a me.Poi, il libro finì in un scaffale alto della mia libreria. Da allora non l'ho più aperto. Oggi l'ho ripreso in mano, l'ho sfogliato, ne ho riletto alcune pagine come per cercare tra quelle parole, che Cora aveva tanto amato, una spiegazione. Ed il libro mi ha risposto così: "Ora volerai" miagolò Zorba. "Ti voglio bene. Sei un gatto molto buono" stridette Fortunata avvicinandosi al bordo della balaustra. "Ora volerai. Il cielo sarà tutto tuo" miagolò Zorba. "Non ti dimenticherò mai. E neppure gli altri gatti" stridette lei già con metà delle zampe fuori dalla balaustra, perchè come dicevano i versi di Atxaga, il suo piccolo cuore era lo stesso degli equilibristi. "Vola" miagolò Zorba allungando una zampa e toccandola appena. Fortunata scomparve alla vista, e l'umano ed il gatto temettero il peggio. Era caduta giù come un sasso. Col fiato sospeso si affacciarono alla balaustra e allora la videro che batteva le ali sorvolando il parcheggio, e poi seguirono il suo volo in alto, molto più in alto della banderuola dorata che corona la singolare bellezza di San Michele." Ora il libro tornerà nello scaffale alto della libreria ed il ricordo di Cora resterà per sempre con me. Ti sono vicina e ti abbraccio forte: Paola
Brad and Leanne Njaa
The first time I met Cora, I thought what a great lady and what a name - I had never heard of the name "CORA". Now it remains a name that I will not soon forget because of the person who bore that name. As Leanne and I drove home from the memorial yesterday, I was contiually reminded of the great joy and love that she shared with those close to her but it was the little things that I will miss the most and for which I selfishly greived. Things like singing "Tu ra lu ra lu ra" to put any one of my children to sleep like only Cora could sing it (and only Cora's version would do), "butta la pasta" any time I wanted (never enough), the best "calzone" in the land, the special, irreplaceable relationship that she had with our Byrnne, how she used to say Stevie with such love and devotion, and that sparkle that she had in her eyes until near the end. But the thing that I will miss most of all is that final farewell that we always faced after each visit or phone call - "Ciao ciao". The chorus that followed from myself, Leanne, Brynne and Layne was always deafening but wonderful. I never really sensed good-bye with that send off but rather until we meet again. That tradition will live on in you Stevie. Cora will always be missed but we will move on and as I promised her this past summer Stevie, I will not allow you to be a hermit. The bond that was established only a few short years ago is ever stronger and it was so incredible to see how Brookie and Layne gravitated toward you Stevie this summer. My hope and prayer is that this bond will continue to grow and strengthen with time and maybe, we can even teach you the finer points of changing diapers - if you are willing, I am sure Brookie would love your assistance. Love always and ciao ciao Brad of BLBLB
Aldo Ricotti
Hi Cora, sicuramente non ho avuto modo di apprezzare tutte le cose belle che ti hanno contraddistinto, e che hanno lasciato a tutti i tuoi amici ricordi incancellabili, ma anch'io, ho la fortuna di far parte di quelle persone che porteranno con se un pochino della tua immortalità. Ovunque tu sia..., aiutaci a trasmettere quella gioia di esistere e quella forza a combattere ed a non mollare mai, sempre guardando avanti e con fiducia nel futuro. Hi Cora, quel bacio che ho chiesto a Stevie di darti da parte mia, racchiude in se molto piu' affetto e significato di quanto io possa mai scriverti ora. ( ma tu questo già lo sai ) Ovunque tu sia ...... ciao Cora ! ;) Aldo Baldo
Rhonda Christiansen
Auntie was one of the most beautiful people I have known, so far in my life, I just have faith that she and my mother are sitting peacefully somewhere catching up on old times!! I know you must miss her terribly, but I hope you will continue to live your life with as much love as you did while she was here. I know she would want nothing less. Besides, I bet those FUR BALLS need lots of your attention now, right?? Keep your chin up and remember that we love you....I'll give you a call next week to see how you are. Til then, take good care of yourself.... XOXO Rhonda
Penney & Bob Pond
What a beautiful tribute to Cora's memory you have created! We were very sorry to hear that Cora died. You two shared so many wonderful achievements and creations. We will always cherish the memory of Cora showing us how you two remade your house. Please know that we are thinking of you with great sympathy and affection. If there is anything we can do to help, please let us know. fond regard, Penney & Bob
Serena Bezzi
ho visto questa e-mail per Cora, tanto triste e nello stesso tempo piena di vita. Mi dispiace tantissimo, Steve, ti sono vicina in questo momento così doloroso. Anch'io renderò Cora immortale perchè conservo di Lei un pensiero di umanità, di amore, quell'amore che tanto e al di sopra di tutto dimostrava a te, e la sua temerarietà, una donna ammirevole.. Ricordo nell'anno in cui ci siamo conosciuti quell'estate, quando siete partiti in bici per Londra... che impressione di forza e unione che mi avete dato. Soprattutto Cora. E' bellissima quella foto di Cora sulla bici. Io la ricorderò sempre così. Ti voglio bene Steve. Cora I LOVE YOU Sei con tutti noi che ti abbiamo conosciuta Serena
Evan Swalm
My heart is saddened by the news of the passing of your wife... your companion, Cora. Even though you have known the inevitable for some time, the impact of an event like this is none-the-less difficult for you. Please accept my sincere condolence in this time of loss. I will remember Cora with your articulate summary: "I never met a person that was so simple, optimistic and full of life as Cora, able to love without reservation. Cora has not left us. Like me, she believes in immortality. The immortality made of the things we did in life and the lives we touched." PS If I can be of help in any way please do not hesitate to ask.... Evan
Emanuele Vitrano
Sono sconvolto da quando ho ricevuto la tua email del 15 giugno con le notizie su Cora. Quel giorno ho versato tutte le lacrime che da adulto non ero mai stato capace di versare. Cora era davvero una persona speciale, e adesso che non c'e' il mondo e' molto piu' brutto: questo e' il sentimento qui fra chi l'ha conosciuta anche solo virtualmente. Per me e per tutti una persona meravigliosa. So che posso solo intuire il tuo dolore, se il mio e' cosi' profondo. Mi sembra stupido dire a una persona come te di farsi coraggio e forza: di quello ne hai sempre avuto piu' di tutti noi. Ricorda pero' che qui c'e' con te sempre una grande famiglia, e un fratello che ti abbraccia piu' forte che mai. Emanuele
Ed Stephens
I am in Vancouver and will be returning to Prince Albert on Sunday. My sincerest sympathy to you and your family. I am so very sorry. Warmest regards, Ed Stephens
Sheila Horne-Rindal
I was saddened to hear today that Cora had passed on the weekend. My mother-in-law had been keeping me up to date on Cora's battle with Cancer. The last time I saw Cora was at my bridal shower in the summer of 1993. I spent time talking to her that day and she told me all about her travels and that she had come back to P.A. to live again. I can remember her being a care free spirit and I truly wished that I had known her better. Your tribute to her is beautiful. She will be greatly missed. My thoughts are with you and Cora's family at this difficult time. Sheila Horne-Rindal
Paul Lomheim
My heart goes out to you. There are no words that I can say to help through these moments. I am thinking of you. Please, do not hesitate to call for any help. Paul
Giustino Serenelli
Visitando il tuo sito abbiamo appreso la triste notizia del decesso di tua moglie. Anche se non ci conoscevamo, siamo stati molto turbati da questo drama. Sarà perche avevamo intuito una grande storia d'amore tra Cora e te. Ti porgiamo le nostre più sincere condolglianze. Famiglia Serenelli Giustino
Harold and Karen Corbett
My last two memories of Cora: I was visiting your place and Cora came up on her bike, having just cycled to her physiotherapy. She was tired rightfully so. I remember talking to the both of you and realizing how happy you both were together. I also remember thinking what a fighter, what a free spirit, what a good person Cora was. I was sad that cancer was robbing her of her spirit, she did not show she was sad, and standing there with her bike, she flashed her warm smile, letting me know it was going to be ok. :) My other memory was a couple of weeks ago, I phoned to talk to you and Cora answered. She was having a bad day, it was awkward for me to know what to say, but Cora rushed in, sensing my awkwardness, and put me at ease. I sensed that may be the last time I would talk to her, and marvelled at her strength even in pain. Stephen, God has blessed you with Cora, and memories of her. I am here anytime, for a coffee or a hug. Thank you for sharing Cora and your pictures of her...a truly good person. Harold and Karen Corbett
Ken Landers
My condolences on the passing of your wife, Cora. I know of no words which can ease the pain of losing a loved one. I too, have lost several loved ones, including my father in 1990, and there is just nothing that one can say to help ease the pain, except that I hope she was not suffering during her remaining days. All I can say is, I wish you the best in the future, and hope that your grief does not stop you from living life to the fullest, every day. Draw strength from your family and friends around you, and Godspeed. Sincerely, Ken Landers
Paolo Gilardi
entrando nel sito ho rivissuto lo spirito alto e libero di Cora, che abbraccio e bacio nel mio pensiero. Non ho parole, ti voglio bene, ho voglia di vederti. Ciao, Paolo
Lisa Balone and Jackie Melin
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. We had many happy times working with Cora. She brightened every work day and made us realize that nothing was ever as bad as it seemed. Even when we no longer worked at the same office with her, we would see her around Prince Albert and she would always have a smile, a kind word and time to "catch up". You are not alone in your grief and sorrow, as Cora will be sadly missed by all who knew her. Love, Lisa Balone and Jackie Melin
Gordon Reid
My dear friend, always patient, always sincere, you will be missed. Gordon Reid
Massimo Bigoni
Hi Cora, come al solito arrivo sempre in ritardo ma questa volta solamente perche prima di tutto dovevo ritrovare quel fragile equilibrio interiore che la triste notizia ha turbato. Anche se ci conoscevamo da poco tempo sono stato molto contento quando lo scorso Natale ho ricevuto la tua telefonata durante il periodo "buio" della chemioterapia. E' stato l'inizio di un legame speciale con una persona speciale. Durante i mesi in cui abbiamo condiviso l'esperienza "cancro", da Te ho imparato a guardare sempre avanti. Steve dice che le azioni compiute durante la vita ed i ricordi che rimangono alla gente costituiscono l'immortalità delle persone. Un piccolo "mattone" della casa della Tua immortalità è custodito nel mio cuore... Massimo
Laurent Mougeot
The way in which you communicated this to me and others, because i have heard from them, is probably the most comforting way i have ever seen... The beautiful memories, attached to your message, immediately brought so many of my own images of Cora. Memories of meeting her so many times on the streets of our city as she biked or walked to gather news and meet people. Always smiling, and bearer of good words, always such a positive person. Also memories of how i discovered this wonderful couple ... through the most eclectic collection of bicycle arts i have ever seen (this brings a smile to me right now)... at Amy's, already so many years ago. And it is only these great thoughts that come to my mind when i think of her and you. And many, many people this week, at coffee rests, at meetings and on the streets, remembered her the way i do... what a wonderful person we have met in Cora !!! You have been blessed more than us, to have shared so much with her. Your words also spoke of love for her. So poetic and also so caring. Your relationship is so wonderful, so powerful. I want to let you know, that my thoughts are very much with you these days. I continue to think, as you do, that she will be there with you forever... In your creativeness, in your belief that people can make a better world by contributing positively where they live, and by being honest and caring for others ... A big friendly hug to you Stephen. Laurent
Peter Abrametz
I am very sorry for your loss. You have made a beautiful website for Cora. Peter Andrew Abrametz
Inez and Paul Frostad
Leanne phoned and told me that your Cora had passed away. I can remember when Leanne first told me about Cora and you. Maybe it was an evening of "bikes" had been on the agenda - and Cora had made these special (pasta) Italian dishes. I am so sorry that I didn't write to Cora to let her know how much she meant to us; being forty years older than Leanne anyway - it was special that Leanne and Brad had you and Cora for friends. We always got the copies of "City Lights" with the kids on the front page. Being older we've witnessed so much sorrow. I am a survivor. It's 10 years since I had breast cancer. While it was difficult to see many children, teenagers and young mothers with more advanced CA, I was thankful that our kids were grown. As the years passed by, I continue to survive. I had time to adjust and feel the heavies that go with the diagnosis of cancer. So I know the heavies you have shared with Cora. While we know that death is part of life, we are thankful that suffering comes to and end. Thanks for hanging in with Cora, it takes quality caring and love. I know time passes and we continue to set goals and make choices to have quality life. Some days it is uphill but life goes on. Sincerely, Inez and Paul Frostad P.S. I have not done this before, so understand that I am sorry and extend my sympathy to you. (Written to a friend of my kids that doesn't know me.)
Todd Chamberlain
You're probably swamped with e-mails, so I'll be brief... so very sorry to hear about Cora. I didn't know she was ill. My deepest sympathy for your loss, yet my greatest joy for the time you had together. I never saw Cora without a smile on her face, I'm sure due to your relationship together. Again, so very sorry for you. :-)
Rob and Anne, Dave and Opi, Steve and Imegen and Evelyn Cheney
I'm so sorry to hear the news of Cora. I just picked up my message's this morning as I took the start of the week off, hence no flowers today (sorry Cora.) I don't know what to say! I wished I could be there with you today of all days. Heartfelt sympathy's go out to you from your English family, Our thoughts are with you. If there's anything? anything anything just state it! Don't be a stranger. Big Love Steve All the Cheney family share in your loss. Our thoughts are constantly with you. Sincerely, Love and best wishes Rob and Anne, Dave and Opi, Steve and Imegen and Evelyn Cheney
Shirley Barg
What a beautiful tribute to Cora! I am so sorry to hear that she has gone--I had heard she was ill. I am glad you could be there with her and for her for her final moments in this life. My thought are with you and those closest to you and Cora. Shirley
Umberto di Maria
Ciao Stephen, è un piacere rivederti, anche se solo su Internet. Complimenti per tutto il lavoro che hai fatto che mi sembra assolutamente utile. Chi ti scrive è UMBERTO, ricordi? Quello a cui hai lasciato il tuo primo compaq e dove hai mosso i tuoi primi passi su VENTURA Desktop Publishing, do you remember. Adesso mi occupo di altro (ma ancora in parte di turismo). Spero di rivederti presto, un salutone forte forte e un abbraccio. Ho saputo di Cora e voglio dirti che mi dispiace molto: di voi mantengo un bellissimo ricordo, quando vi parlavate in inglese dalla finestra di Zeta Iniziative e vi dedicavate uno all'altro. Pace a Cora. Umberto di Maria
Gary Taylor
I was saddened to read of yours loss of Cora and want to tell you that my thoughts are with you in this time of crisis and loss Gary Taylor
Iain MacLennan
Please accept my sincere condolences at this very sad time. I did not know of Cora's passing until I opened my e mail this morning. What a wonderful way you have chosen to remember Cora! I have shared the web site with one of our nurses who remembers Cora very fondly and I will also tell Dr. Le, the gynaelogical oncologist the news. Thanks for sharing this beautiful memorial with me. May you have many friends to offer you support and encouragement at this time. Sincerely, Iain
Graham Boyd
Cora, Cora, what a girl you were! I can just see you in the reception area of my office. It was just when you returned from Italy with Stephen, to live in P.A.. You needed insurance and were dealing with one of my staff and asked to see me. I came out of my office and there you were full of life excitement and happiness. You still looked like the same girl I met in School so many years ago and went to High School parties with. We were not close then but that was going to change and I could tell you were determined to re-open and improve on an old friendship, I was not so sure. I thought you had become quite eccentric and were too effusive for my rather staid conservative manner. But you persisted and I began to see that the outward impression you conveyed was a product of the very warm loving and vivacious nature you possessed. I am grateful for having had the chance to be your friend once again and this time to be a close friend. I really enjoyed the times, Andy and I had with you and Stephen. Through your daily living you taught a lot. Some lessons I needed to be reminded of, like relaxing, rigid social proprieties; enjoying the moments in life for what they afford in themselves; to view ambitions for material success and possessions with a jaundiced eye; but more personnally to feel the warmth of your friendship and understand your appreciation of life, your acceptance of it's tenuousness, and also your belief in the innate goodness in people. P.S. I've learned to savour a good Italian wine with Pasta and will drink a toast to you, Cora. Graham Boyd
Andy Beaudette
Cora, I appreciated your friendship and the warm interactions we had. You always had the time to help, to give a word of advice, to make a suggestion , to explain, to be interested in our lives. You were busy and burned the candle from both ends at times, but you always made it feel that you had extensive time for us. No matter what was the task, the activity, the chore, it seemed that you enjoyed doing it and could project pleasure from all activities. You loved your Stephen, your home, your cats and your friends, We are all with you and you are with us in very pleasant memories, Thank god, I got a chance to meet you through Graham, and enjoyed your friendship for a part of your life. We all think about you, and those English Sunflowers will be a constant reminder. Andy Beaudette
Giuliano, Fausta, Michele, Paolo Spreafico
L'ho saputo solo adesso, perche' da qualche giorno avevo problemi e non riuscivo a collegarmi. Poi stamattina mi sono svegliato presto e sono riuscito a rimettere in funzione tutto. Da qualche tempo temevo che l'avrei saputo cosi', ma e' stato terribile. Ora voglio solo dirti che ti siamo tutti vicino. E che conserviamo di Cora un ricordo meraviglioso. Non riesco a dirti altro. Avremo tempo nei prossimi giorni di scambiarci messaggi piu' lunghi. In ufficio sono attrezzato con un impianto di videoconferenza. Fammi sapere se possiamo collegarci. Mi piacerebbe tanto vederti. Ciao. Giuliano, Fausta, Michele, Paolo
Mariette Forseille
Cora's love and dedication to you Steven is what I remember best about Cora. I remember a conversation we had where she spoke of you as her "twin spirit" and this had impressed me very much. Her love for you was very evident. I believe you are very fortunate to have had the gift of her love and devotion. She will be greatly missed. Sincerest sympathies at this most difficult time, Mariette Forseille
Enzo Fiore
è difficile esprimere quello che sento, sappi solo che non dimenticherò mai la bontà e il grande altruismo di Cora, io e la mia famiglia Vi siamo vicini. Un abbraccio affettuoso. Enzo.

Timothy W. Shire
Gosh, this form of communications seems so weak in attempting to convey to you the feelings of sympathy I have for you and your family at the loss of Cora. It is my hope that you will be able to cherish the full life you have had together knowing the blessing that you have experienced being a part of Cora's life. Best wishes Timothy W. Shire
David Serenelli
apprendo con dolore della scomparsa di Cora. Desidero farti, anche se con qualche giorno di ritardo le mie condoglianze. In un precedente messaggio (alcuni mesi fa) avevi accennato a problemi di salute; non pensavo di questa entità. Il testo e le belle immagini delle pagine WEB mi hanno fatto conoscere l'affetto ed il profondo legame che ti unisce a Cora. Ed anche la serenità e l'umiltà con cui ha saputo affrontare questo importante momento dell'esistenza. Spero che la sua immagine ed i suoi pensieri ti accompagnino sempre e siano stimolo per tutte le attività che intraprendi e che con lei hai condiviso per anni. Ti prego di estendere il mio saluto anche ai familiari di Cora. Con affetto, David
Merv Bender
Please accept my deepest condolences in your time of loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you Stephen and Cora's family at this time. May God's peace be with you in the days and weeks to come.
Annabel Taylor
I am so sorry to hear of Cora's passing, I understand that it has followed a long period of illness. It was wonderful for her that you were able to be with her and lend her support throughout. My brother passed away in similar circumstances last January, it is such a difficult time, one cannot imagine how hard for both of you. I will watch the paper to see if there will be a service of some kind for her. Take care of yourself.. Annabel

Un caro saluto a Cora, che ho sentito vicina per il suo spirito libero ed anticonformista: non ho potuto conoscerla di persona ma attraverso le parole e le bellissime fotografie di Steve, che mi hanno trasmesso il calore di una persona molto speciale ... Ciao Cora Steve, spero che un "abbraccio" telematico riesca a comunicarti la mia partecipazione a questo inevitabile dolore. Ciao.

Randi Arnot
You are in my thoughts and prayers. The website dedicated to Cora brought back my own memories of her : so vibrant, full of energy, and very caring. She called me when she learned I too had made a career change and took the time to think of me. I picture her standing proudly at your home, snuggling a cat in her arms. She was very happy, and obviously loves you so very much. I pray that her presence in your heart and God's love and will strengthen you and bring you peace. I thank God for the life Cora had in this world and for all the positive energy , enthusiasm and kindness she added. Randi Arnot
Curtis Lemieux
My prayers are with you Stephen at your time of grief. You and Cora lived life to its fullest doing together what you both enjoyed. You are lucky to have been able to spend the years with cora that you had. I will call you in the next couple of days. Curtis

Remembrance Day will have a new meaning for me - I will reflect on my friendship with Cora - a special lady, warm, gracious, thoughtful... pickerel, the opera, cats; 'til we meet again - La Senora, Sonya.

I as well as my husband (who you've never met) were sorry to hear from Leanne about you dear wife's death. I only have a few visual memories of you and Cora (Jasper - Banff bike trip; you helping two friends and I prep for our Washington coast bike trip in 1994, at Brad and Leanne's), but can hear Brad doing his best "wanna be italian" accent... "bootala la pasta", and of times you'd spent with the Njaas, plus of Cora sickness. This tells me you two were important to them that you come up in conversation. Neat, eh?! Just want to let you know with are thinking of you. Dianne, Ron, Haley and Maren

Albertine Alvida Gosselin
Please accept my late condolences in the passing of Cora. I have just returned to my office as I was at working at one of our other campuses for a week. I was in total shock to have read the message about your wife. I want you to know that you are in my prayers. I was taught that for every death of any kind there is a replacement - a new life - so we are really never losing in spirit just physically. As my Grandmother told me, this is why we should be accepting of both life and death. I tried to call you at home but again please accept my condolences with a big hug. Take care Stephen and may the Creator be with you in your time of sorrow. Your Friend - Albertine

I so sorry to hear about Cora. It was obvious that the two of you shared a very special relationship. My deepest sympathies are with you during your time of grief. What a beautiful thing you have done...honoring Cora as you have on the webpage dedicated soley to her.

Jeannine Steinborn
Although I do not know you, I have come across your name on the North Battleford City Lights News. I mostly certainly was shocked to read about your wife....please accept my deepest sympathy...may you find continued peace. What a beautiful tribute has been made about Cora...it is very apparent that she was a very wholesome lady...and I'm sure you miss her dearly. I was about to contact her about applying to get on the Prince Albert City Lights, when I read about her passing. I will contact you at a later time.....but for now, I just wanted to tell you someone is thinking about you, and wishing you some comfort. Take care! Sincerely, Jeannine Steinborn
Marilyn Peterson
You probably don't remember me, but I used to be the Director of the now terminated Career Development Centre. And Cora used to work for us for a brief time. Please accept my sincere condolences on the death of Cora. In the short time she was with our office, she brought a life and energy and I still remember clearly her time in our office. With the passing someone like Cora from our life, it leaves a hole that can never be filled. But in time, the sadness is mostly replaced with the beauty and happiness of our memories and you will start to smile more, and cry less, when you think of her. Marilyn Peterson
DeeDee Chomyk
I'll certainly catch up with you after Christmas. May I add that I cannot express enough sympathy at your recent loss...of your loving wife.

Brian Storey
One could sense that special love that you and Cora shared. I too feel a sense of loss, though I only met Cora once. That feeling of loss has to do with the fact that this world has precious few partnerships like yours was, and it is diminished by one now. My thoughts are with you now and I pray that you will be comforted Brian Storey

I am very sorry to hear of your loss. I know it will be difficult for you for some time. The memories will help and as time goes by you will accept her passing but she live for ever in your heart. I rejoice for Cora because she is suffering no longer. She is at peace and serene at least. When there is no way out, death is a welcome repose. Cora will always be remembered in my heart as a warm hearted and vivacious woman who loved you ever so totally. Stay well Stephen and feel free to call a visit any time. My deepest condolences. Nina

Todd Nelson
My name is Todd Nelson and I would like to once again commend you on the wonderful service you provide to the community of P.A. and more importantly the news you provide to those of us who no longer reside in the province but want to keep abreast of our home-town news. I have been over-seas holidaying in Southeast Asia and working in Australia for the past 3 months and only just read about the passing of your beautiful wife Cora. I personally was not familiar with your wife but my parents Wayne and June (Kerley) Nelson both knew Cora and as a family we would like to extend our heartfelt condolences to you and your family. It is very hard to lose the physical presence of a loved one but it makes it easier when you come to realize that they live on in their accomplishments and in the influences they made in the people they touch in their all to short lives. All the best to you Stephen and I wish continued success to you in your publishing ventures. TODD
