Sorry for the late entry but I just found this page tonight. We are deeply saddened to hear of Maria's passing. It is so hard to believe that she will not be visiting this summer. Iris and Carl you both did a wonderful job caring for your mother when her health started to fail.She was truly blessed to have such caring children. Look after yourself and eachother and God willing we will see you this summer....Wayne, Michelle, Neil, Allison and Mackenzie...Victoria, Newfoundland

Mama King was always a nice person to work with at the Whidden. She loved to call us "honey." My thoughts are with her family. Sue Farrell
