Goodbyes

My cousin Margaret's husband, and my Godfather passed away October 21st.  I liked hanging out with John. We liked the same things - hockey, soccer, food and wine, the outdoors. He made the best steak and salmon barbecue.


Jonas' first soccer coach Tony Waiters passed away November 10th. He was great with the kids and encouraged all of them to learn at least the basics of goalkeeping.




Kitimat honoured my late uncle with a special park bench.

Hi! My name is Jonas Carter Ribeiro and my parents welcomed me into the world on July 10, 2008 at 1:03 AM at Women's and Children's Hospital in Vancouver, BC!

It was a bit hard for my Mommy and Daddy but they stayed with me for 17 hours everyday! My Mommy and Daddy have so many family and friends that love them and me, so we always had visitors while I was at the hospital. I was finally able to come home on July 19th. I love having company, call my Mommy and Daddy and arrange a play date with me!
