So sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. She sounded like one classy broad from how you described her with such admiration and fondness. My thoughts are with you Dawn and John and the rest of your family.

Very sad to see that our friend Mavis has passed away. A beautiful lady always. We shared many evenings together playing Yathzee. When Dawn was a little girl,my daughter Heidi and she were friends. My love and prayers to all her children, and their families,

So sorry to hear of your loss. I used to babysit for Mavis years ago in Saint John. She was such a beautiful person. I saw her a few years ago at Dianne and Ian's in Calgary before she got sick. God bless you all and give you peace during this difficult time.
