In Loving Memory
Guy Robert Pitton, April 13, 1954 - January 5, 2012
If tears could build a stairway,
and memories a lane,
we would walk right up to heaven
and bring you home again.
Forever in our hearts, much love from your family and loved ones.
Special thanks to the staff at Powell River General Hospital, Jim Agius, and to Jeff Lloyd for being such a great friend to Guy.
