John I would certainly write to the funeral home and ask whether they would pass a message to the family ... the funeral was only 8 years ago so there is every chance the funeral home (or cemetery) would have contact info

............. and of course there is google which finds this message from Donald's brother-in-law:

http://boards.ancestry.ca/thread.aspx?mv=flat&m=206&p=surnames.mckenna

that is 15 years old ... but there are more recent mentions of that brother-in-law on line

he lives (google maps tells me) in a rural area outside Hamilton ... but unfortunately I can't seem to find a telephone listing
