Uncle Joe, Linda, Sandy and families,

Aunt Vi was so devoted to her family. I loved her excitement in her talking of Kristine and Scott and all that they accomplished as they grew up. She was so proud of you. I'll remember her NH visits with Uncle Joe to play bingo with my mother.
She will be close to you everyday through all of your happy memories. May peace be with you.
Sincerely,

Danielle Garneau
