DEAR MARIA & TONY, we truly loved her, you had a great MOM. She was friendly always and kind. She let us always park in her back yard so we could go to our church across the street. For that we were so thankful. When there was easter baking in her church, she would supply us with her round bread loaves. They were so good. WE will truly miss her. ALL OUR LOVE JACK & AGATHA - Posted by: Jack and Agatha Dyck (friend) on: Apr 20, 2017

Dear Maria I am deeply sorry about your mother's passing. I can't imagine what you are going through during these difficult days. She was without a dough the most dedicated mother, she lived for you with such a passion that was second to none. You were the apple of her eye, from dressing you with the best since you were little, to the focus on your education, she loved you dearly. Loosing her is a huge loss. The only thing you can take comfort in is to know she is in peace and no more pain, she will be protecting you from above.
