Thinking of you Sandi & your Mom at this sad time. Anyone who has heard of Wesley Oake but didn't know him will remember him from his skydiving and what a thrill it was for him.
A man of adventure that you will remember with great joy.
God bless him and you and your family.
Sincere love and sympathy. Miss Catherine

Oh Sandy I am so sorry about your Dad. I know you cared deeply for him. It is never easy saying goodbye to the ones we love.
I remember meeting him when we worked at VON. A sweet endearing gentleman.
God bless . Xxoo.

What a blessing to have lived for 96 years, and to have been so active, in mind and body. I remember him well, when he was the minister of the United Church in Glenwood and they lived on the hill in Appleton. He was a well respected man in out community, and very easy to approach. A life well lived,

To the Oake Family,
Deepest sympathy in your time of bereavement. To me Rev. Oake was a man of great respect. I will never forget when he came to Twillingate for a Church crusade. That week he had 75 converts and I was the first one to make that decision.
