We are very sorry to hear of loss of your Mom, Grandma, Great-Grandma. She was a great neighbour and friend to us here on the farm. She lived a long and rewarding life dedicated to her family and communities. Cherish all the wonderful memories and may God bless in the days to come.

We are so sorry that we cannot be there to celebrate the many good times with Aunt Shirley. She will be remembered for much more than achieving a long life span. It was a life of devotion to her family and community. God blessed us through her. May your family be comforted now and in the days to come.

Dear Jean, Pat and families:

I often think of your family and the good times we shared in the Munro School community. Also the many times I stayed with Linda and Pat when Mom and Dad were away for the evening. Sending my sincerest condolences at this time. May your Mom be at rest . . .

Dear Pat, Bev, Jean, Dennis & Family,

We are very sorry about your loss. Your mother was a great woman. We will be unable to attend the funeral as we are leaving that day for Hawaii. Our thoughts will be with you.
