To Susan and family,
I am deeply saddened to hear of your mothers passing. Your parents were an integral part of my life growing up at Kahshe Lake. Your mom was always so full of life, embracing every part of it. Always a smile, welcoming and enjoying every day. A beautiful person- I am so very sorry for your loss.

To all the family; June and I are very sorry for your loss. Although it has been many years since we last spoke, Fin has never been very far from our thoughts. We remember all the great times we had with Fin and Tommy they were fond memories of our weekends together at the cottage, the bridge games,tennis and dart games with Tommmy. There were also the return visits to Brantford and our touring around the countryside. Fin, you were always a very special lady in so many ways and you will always be fondly be remembered.

I knew Joyce for so long that I started out some 40 years ago calling her Joyce when I was about three or four and she used to take me in to give my mom a break from my daily constant stream of questions, to when I switched to calling her Mrs. Elrick out of respect when I was a teenager until I grew up and had kids of my own and went back to calling her Joyce again. She was so much fun to be around, her laughter was infectious, she had a great outlook and always made me smile. We Snowdons will really miss Joyce and all she brought to our family over the past half century. God speed, Joyce. May you rest in peace.

I am sad to say goodbye to your Mom. Your family was an integral part of life in Greenwood. Whether playing tennis at the park or tobogganing down your back hill your mom was always around with a smile.

I remember hey dropping by randoming when out for a walk, and having us kids for a snack. I feel the loss.

Please be happy and proud to have had her as your Mom.

I was saddened to learn of Joyce passing. She had a love of nature and a keen eye and talent to capture scenes through photography and art. Her pieces are a treasure. Our shared experiences in Greenwood will not be forgotten Joyce. My condolences to Susan, David and their families.
