Our beloved mother died peacefully in her home surrounded by her children. She was 95.
She lived life to the fullest through her strong Catholic faith and a profound love of family and friends.
She joins her late husband of 50 years, Eric, and her oldest son, Charles, in heaven.
She is survived by her children, Teresa (Hilary), Rita, Plassey, Nancy (Franklin), her priest son, Fr. George, Ronnie (Margaret), Sandra and Alan (Lindsay), grandchildren and great grandchildren. She was deeply loved by all.
We love you dearest Mummy!
