I'm so sorry to learn of your loss. I worked with your mother for many years at Aurora Park. We shared many laughs, and stories of our families and work. She was a good nurse and great person. My thoughts are with you at this sad time in your life.

John & Family,
At times like this, it's hard to find the words that best convey the many thoughts of sympathy our hearts would like to say. Losing a Mother is one of the deepest sorrows a heart can know. She meant the world to you, YOU ALL were a special part of her life and you made her VERY HAPPY. So when you're remembering all the SPECIAL TOGETHER TIMES she touched with the love only a mother can give, maybe it will help you to think of the JOY you brought to her life and how much SHE LOVED YOU TOO.
As children, we can't comprehend or fully realize the meaning of our mother's love, how tender and how wise, the patience and forgiveness that are part of every day, the unexpected "little things" she does in her own way. Years go by before we can look back on life and see through older eyes and wiser hearts her love and loyalty, and yet it's these and other special things we'll hold so dear, for the memories of her steadfast love will keep her ever near.
But may it somehow help to know that though our words are few, I am thinking of you now and always and share this loss with you.

You all are in my thoughts and prayers. She is now with the LORD.

To Aunt Kathy, Uncle Terry, and my millions of cousins - I WISH that I could be there with you during this sad time. I am at a loss for words as I am still shocked of the news.

My heart aches for one last conversation with Aunt Joyce to let her know that I love her and that she was always such an influence to me, raising her children single handedly. I want to tell her that I am sorry for not keeping in better touch, sharing more time together, getting to know each other more. And that she always made the best darn Chocolate Chip Cookies ever! I want to tell her that 'The Price is Right' isn't the same without Bob Barker and that this earth won't be the same with you. I want to tell her to be sure to give my Dad a hug from me, tell him I miss him every single day. Give a kiss and hug to Gram, and tell her that I miss our afternoon chats with our good friend 'Molson Golden!' Tell them all "hello" from Planet Earth and that some day our paths will cross again.

As you requested in your letter - I will pray often, and find my faith once again, I promise. I love you dearly....keep on smilin'
Best,
Colleen Dooley

I am so very sorry for your loss. Joyce was a wonderful person and an exceptional nurse! The nursing home was more fun to work at when she was there. I thought of her often and will continue to. She was very special.
