Rona was my Mom away from home. I never had to call before stopping for a spot "au" tea and conversation. Sometimes Linda and Peter would be home and come and join us. They are a great Family I've known for about 47yrs.
RIP Rona.

Peter, Linda and family, I am so sorry to hear of your Loss. Rona was a good friend to me and I truly will miss her. Her cook book, which she signed for me, will forever remain close to my heart. I loved our many talks about so many subjects, she truly loved company, conversation, and tea. Her love of family, cooking, baking and gardens made her what she was and she will always remain in my heart for these very qualities. Will Miss you Rona. God now holds you, the pain is now gone. Till we...
