Laurie and Greg, I am sorry to hear of the passing of your beloved mother. We always called her Auntie Maureen as she and my mom, Georgina, were the best of friends. So much so that my mom named my older sister after your mom. She was such a moving woman and you will feel her loss greatly. - Posted by: Kelly Greenaway (nee DeJong) (friend of family) on: May 23, 2025

Laurie and Greg ….. I was saddened to read of Maureen’s passing. She was a wonderful caring person who was a joy to be around. I so enjoyed playing crib with her at the Legion. My heart goes out to you and your family at this most difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Coralie - Posted by: Coralie Bornais (Church friend) on: May 11, 2025
