Deepest sympathy to the whole family . She was a very ambitious lady , always making sure her flowers were well kept and weed free . And then those big trees and all the leaves ..kept her lawn as bare as possible. We used to live across the street at 31 Killdeer Rd. We moved to Listowel last August . I don't think there was a day go by that I did not see her out for her daily walk or coming and going for groceries . Many times I offered to take her for groceries and she said she needed to walk . I was glad when they started the K bus system as it gave her 1 way to be easy . Even in winter she was out trying shovelling to keep driveway clean. We had a blower and I would try to beat her across the street . I wasn't always successful .
Many fond memories .
May she rest in peace .
