RIP Harry Cameron Jacobs

Sandy's father Harry passed away this afternoon. It was just two weeks ago that we gathered to celebrate his 90th birthday. Back in hospital for a relatively minor issue, he went into heart failure overnight. He did wake up in the morning and we had a couple of hours to talk to him. His last words were:

"I'm ready to go. No regrets."

Rest in Peace, Harry. We will miss you.

 Jan & Harry
