We were shocked and deeply saddened to learn about Trevor’s passing. He and Cecil got up to to many adventures together and Trevor was a big part of our family who will be greatly missed. He and Gracie together raised a wonderful extended family and were each other’s rock. We are very sorry to not be able to be with you but will join the livestream.
