  • Missing you terribly. I miss Winnipeg every day and think of our last visit often. Brea is just over a year old; despite being so small she has an absolute heart of gold and can always make you smile. She s a big sister now...Maisie is almost 2months old! The girls are already very close and love each other. Brea looks so much like me now youd be amazed. I keep your candle and pictures close.My heart breaks with sadness I can't forgive. Sending all my love. - Posted by: StefanI lucan (Grand daughter) on: Jul 16, 2015

  • This year our family welcomed my daughter Brea. I am sad she wasn't here to share this with me. However I am very excited to tell her all about her great grandmother and what a classy woman and tough woman she was. I've never met anyone so loving. Kisses grandma. Missing you and always thinking of you. - Posted by: Stefani Lucan (Grand daughter) on: Aug 26, 2014
