Lulu Hope

Well Mom, in summarizing, the expiration is drawing nigh for entries in your guest book. I am so pleased at the participation and all the wonderful things people remembered. I can't remember you ever being a Montreal Canadiene fan (Oilers for sure) but I do know you liked a Montreal Canadian by the name of Trudeau. There are some entries missing and I feel bad about that.
As I said in the memoriam, you are sadly missed and I'd give anything to have you back with us. I know how you loved...

Grandma, even during tough times for you, I remember receiving gifts of knitted socks and sweaters at Christmas, when I expected nothing. You always made a difference, and your strenght and courage are things that most of us can only hope for. You are truly missed.

Mother Hope,what wonderful memories I have of our times together.Miss you and love you.Love Ruth

Mom:
You were such an inspiration to us - You gave us a happy childhood full of humour and wisdom
You encouraged us to believe in dreams and the power of "little miracles"
Simple things enthralled you - little daisies, tenacious Sparrows, and the scent of Lilacs.
How we wish we could share a tea break with you in your little house.
Thank you Mom.
Eternally your biggest fans, Betty Lou, Bill and family.

It is an amazing legacy that after all these years, you are still so warmly remembered. You would be proud to know that your "Little Ones" remain close and that you are always the number 1 topic of conversation. I only hope that one day my legacy speaks as well. I make attempts to guide my children as you did yours. Remebered forever, D'Arcy and Family. Happy 91st birthday mom!

Dear Grandma: I will always remember visiting you and listening to family stories. You would laugh so hard you would be in tears and that would make us laugh even harder. I also remember you always had some candy stashed away for us and we would sit down to TV and talk the evening with you and Betty-Lou.

Grandma, your memory always brings a smile to my face and a chuckle. I remember you especially for two things. Firstly, your selflessness. You ate only once your children had and only if there was something left. Secondly, your sense of humour, intentional or not. I have never forgotten listening to an Eskimos' game once with you, Denny and Darcy, and you calling Tommy Joe Coffey a bum for dropping a pass! I still have your Blue Jays cap....whenever you need it!
Love, Kevin, Wilma,...

Grandma you left us when I was quite young, I wish I could have had more time to get to know you. But from what I remember you were and always will be a kind soul. I miss you and I look forward to our reunion. I love you...

You were a remarkable woman and created a wonderful family. You are truly missed.
