Date of Passing: Oct 28, 2012
Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryEDNA GRAY (nee SPRINGALL) It is with great sadness we announce the passing of our Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandma on Sunday, October 28, 2012. Mom passed in her sleep in her own bed exactly as she would have wanted. Mom was born May 13, 1927, in Norwich, England. She carried a special place in her heart for England, as well as her many nieces and nephews who survive her there. Mom came to Canada with our Dad Bill and daughter Linda in 1954. Mom was predeceased by our Dad in 2005. Edna is survived by daughters Linda Engstrom (Wayne), Susan Desjardins (Jim), Bonny Gray (Ron Shelby); grandchildren Angela (John), Kevin, Chris (Brittney), Ashley, Ryan (Maylia), Tyler; great-grandchildren Matthew, Sophie, Brody and Brenna. Mom lived independently despite some health struggles - for which she never complained. As per Mom's wishes, cremation has taken place and there will be no service. Mom you will leave a void in all of our lives. We will always love and miss you. For when I've come to the end of my journey And I travel my last weary mile, Just forget if you can, that I ever frowned And remember only the smile. Forget unkind words I have spoken; Remember some good I have done. Forget that I ever had heartaches, And remember I've had loads of fun. Forget that I stumbled and blundered, And sometimes fell by the way. Remember I have fought some hard battles; And won, ere the close of the day, Then forget to grieve for my going; I would not have you sad for a day. But in summer just gather some flowers And remember the place where I lay. And come in the shade of the evening, When the sun paints the sky in the west. Stand for a few moments beside me, And remember only my best. Don't cry for me cause you think that I'm gone. I'm free now... Miss me a little, but not long Miss me...but let me go. 204-586-8044

Dear Linda, Susan, Bonny & your partners & children & grandkids, I would like to convey my heartfelt condolences to all of you. My memories of Edna are fond ones. For such a tiny woman she sure had a larger than life presence about her! The last time I saw her was at your Dad's funeral & I thought she looked fantastic! When I read the announcement in the paper yesterday it really brought a tear to my eye. My thoughts and prayers go out to each & every one of you. - Posted by: Ron Kaethler (Friend) on: Nov 04, 2012
