In memoriam...

There is going to be a memorial service for Ivy (Jennifer) Alexander on Sunday, November 8th, 2015 from 2:30PM to 6:00PM at the First Unitarian Congregation of Ottawa, 30 Cleary Avenue, in Ottawa. Ivy died from cancer with almost no warning on October 4th, 2015 at the age of 45. Former wife, mother to our children, and my occasional nemesis, we also had a lot of good years together and those good memories were never and will never be cast aside. A formal ceremony will be conducted by longtime family friend Síân Reid at 3:00PM in the Worship Hall, followed by a reception in the adjoining Fellowship Hall. There will be a potluck afterward in the Fellowship Hall, please bring something to share.

Fyi, Cleary Avenue and the church is just east of Woodroffe Avenue off of Richmond Road, a link to a map is below.

There is an obituary in The Ottawa Citizen if you want to make public remembrances:

She was always a big fan of Depeche Mode (at least when we were together, and Duran Duran for that matter, heh)...

"Depeche Mode - Just Can't Get Enough (Remastered Video)" (Watch on YouTube)

Ah, what the hell...
