Kathy and Kevin, I was so sorry to hear of the passing of your Mom. Your Mom was a great friend and a support to me when I moved to Verdun from PEI in 1959.I enjoyed many visits to your home when you were children. Pearl remained a good friend over the years although we lost touch in the last few years. I will always have happy memories of Pearl. Please accept my condolences. May she rest in peace.

Dear Cathy and Joanne,
Pierrette joins me in offering our condolences of the passing of your mother/mother-in-law.
Children bury their parents and mourn their loss. Some of us are fortunate to have them with us for a long period of time, to love and to cherish. What a blessing
