Gail joins me in sending our prayers to Gilbert, Charlotte , Charline and families. We both hold special memories of Mrs. St. Onge. A wonderful alto soloist who blessed us many times. I also remember her Christian example and patience keeping us young teenaged guys in line during our Sunday school days of the early 70's. She truly was an angel looking over us. Blessings to you all Donald & Gail Harris

It is never easy to say good-bye for now to a loved one, but be comforted in knowing that a true angel is now safe in the arms of our Lord. Marilynn St-Onge was a very special women who made everyone she came in contact with feel accepted and loved. I pray that Gilbert, Charlotte, Charline and all of her family will feel her love and gracious spirit surround even now and in the days to come. She will be missed by so many.

Gilbert, Charlotte, Charline, Don & families: My heart is so sad as I think of the passing of my friend of over 50 years has been summoned home to be with her personal Saviour and Friend. Yet I also rejoice knowing she is not suffering any longer. Marilynn had the most beautiful and contagious smile, and she loved the Lord and her family. May you all find peace and comfort today and in the days that follow from the love and prayers of your many friends and loved ones. Leonard and I send our deepest regrets as we are unable to attend her Service of Celebration, however know our thoughts and prayers will be with you all in the coming days and months as you cope with the loss of a wonderful wife, Mom, Grandma, Sister and Aunt. Love to you all Joanne & Leonard
