Jennie:



My sincere condolences go out to you and your family. I know that the loss of your mother has been the hardest thing for you and I know you miss her terribly. She was a wonderful person who was thoughtful and always there for sooooo many people. I am sure there was a place in heaven reserved just for her.



This is a difficult time but take solace in the fact that your mom knew how much you loved her….all the favorite meals you prepared for her, all the treats you brought her, the cream you rubbed on her back, all the times you and Martin visited her, all the phone calls back and forth, all the times you needed to hear her voice, all the selfless care and love you had for her…she knew.



Her colorful personality brought smiles to everyone she touched. I love hearing about all the funny things she said and did. Relive all the wonderful memories and keep sharing the stories - they make me smile…….

Ma,



It was 4 weeks yesterday, we love and miss you terribly, a piece of us is gone with you. How can this deep void be filled? We know you are in a much better place, free of pain, strife, and suffering.



Your legacy will live on forever in your family and friends. I, Jennifer, your loving daughter, can only hope to be 1 ounce of a wonderful woman you are because you will always be with me in every waking moment, especially in my dreams because that is where we can catch up on the old times in the future.



We will never forget you. You will live on in our hearts forever.

See you when!

December ’04 found me lucky enough to finally get to meet the “infamous Winnie” whom I had heard so much about from Karine.



I only had the pleasure of meeting Grama Talbot a few times on a short visit, but clearly without any doubt Winnie was very special lady, who definitely had only a positive affect on the people whose lives she touched. I didn’t know her for very long but she made me feel as if I had known her forever. Winnie you are sadly missed by all those whose lives you touched, including myself.



My deepest sympathies to the family, but most especially to Karine, Alex & Terry for your great loss, hopefully you will find solace in the fact that Winnie is now cradled in the peace and safety of God’s arms for the rest of eternity.

Grandma, you are definitely one of the strongest, most remarkable women I know and will probably have the good fortune of ever meeting. Everyday I will carry a part of you in my heart, as well as the lessons you have taught me and the values you have instilled in me. I can only hope of touching others’ lives like you have, as I strive to continue your legacy and make my everlasting mark in this world. Until our paths cross, I will do you proud and do you justice. You will sorely be missed… I love you…

She graced this earth with her indomitable spirit, her steadfastness and courage when facing adversity, her positive and generous nature and that infectious laughter. Through the simplicity of her daily life and her appreciation for what we seem to take for granted she proved to be a most eloquent and inspiring teacher, mother and friend. How can we best honour the memory of such a remarkable woman? Surely by nurturing the lives and loves we have been blessed with and by spreading kindness with hearts filled with gratefulness. She would ask from us nothing more and she has given nothing less. To all her children, their families and friends, our deepest sympathies. May you find comfort in knowing our Creator has reserved for her a very special place indeed.

Terry- please accept my depest and sincere sympathy on the loss of your loving mother. I am certain having lost both my parents in the last year, you too feel a deep void in your heart but take comfort in the thought that your mom is in a better place and free from pain and suffering. All the best to you and your family in this difficult time.

Although I've only had the pleasure of meeting Winnie on a couple of occassions I'm sure I speak for many when I state how joyful,charming and vibrant she was. Her smile was exceptional; her laughter radiant and youthful. It comes as no surprise then that those who loved and cherished her share these qualities. Terry, Karine and Alex thank you for introducing me to her and sorry for your great loss. She will always be remembered and her memory will always bring a smile to my face as it will to those who shared even a

passing moment in her radiance.



Love, Damian

Dear Terry, I extend my heartfelt sympathy to you and your family on the loss of your dear Mother...I was so saddened to hear of her passing. No matter how old we, as children are, we are never ready to say Goodbye to a beloved Parent.

I never had the good fortune to meet your Mum, but her legacy lives on in the goodness you, yourself, show to everyone Terry. Your heart is as big as the Rockies and everyone who knows you is a better person ~ and this is the best tribute that a Mother could ever want, knowing that her children have grown up to be respected in the community and cherished by their friends. With much love & prayers during this difficult time.
