I will remember my grandmother with a happy heart. Her laugh was fulfilling, her stories were interesting, and boy could she cook, bake, and sew. She was a strong and pioneering woman. I will miss you .... Until we meet again xoxoxoxo

It is with great sadness that we learn of the passing of Mrs. Finlayson, Mother of dear friends, Jeff & Linda Finlayson. Though expected because of advancing years, it is always a sense of lose and great sorrow, when this wonderful generation of parents pass from our daily lives. These exceptional people who have set the benchmark for all future parents, can never be forgotten; having given a full measure of their devotion to our care.
May GOD'S blessings be upon the entire Finlayson...

We are so sorry to hear of this. How nice it was to grow up next to the best baker in town, and the seamstress who could make the little tiny Barbie clothes! Our sympathy to all the family. Nancy and Fred Broadbent

To Joan's family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of spending some time with Joan over this winter and enjoyed our talks. She was a special lady who will be missed. Take comfort that she is in a better place now.
