I met Felix and his wife Deb in June 2007 for the first time. From the moment I met them I always felt welcomed by them and their family in their house which turned out to be a warm home. This is a picture of Fee and Deb's house in Nova Scotia that I took when I was there to visit. Thank you, you know how I love you.

Not Just A House, Its A Home
November 2, 2008
Written By: Rose Marie Rideout

  I know we only met awhile ago,
But now it seems as it has been forever.
I have joined you and your family,
Through each season and all its weather.

I found warmth and enjoyment,
Always welcomed never alone.
I soon found out through your love,
You have not just a house, its a home.

You have shared not just your home,
You have shared your loving family,
All your children and grandkids,
Do you know what that means to me.

I know you love me and always will,
When time stands still, I’ll not be alone.
For I know I’m always welcomed in,
For you have not just a house, its a home

Beautiful Rose. Without love a house is but a dwelling of wood and stone, it's love that makes a house a home.

What a wonderful friendship!!! Or is Fee your cousin? I seem to have heard you say that before that Fee is your cousin. Now I can't really remember whether it was you who said that or someone else.

But regardless, I think Fee has a wonderful personality!!! Perhaps when I visit Nova Scotia I will look him up too.

What a warm friendship this is!!! Nice house too!!!
