Hi Lionmands

I was able to do the look ups for the death registrations for Doris and Jonas yesterday.  If you would send me your email address via PM, I will forward the transcriptions to you.

Thanks.

Perhaps a coincidence of name but Marion Lily nee Seymour was born in Manitoba and died in Campbell River.
