Condolences & Memories (6 entries)

  • My most cherished memories will forever be the Christmases spent at the farm, and watching the blue jays out the living room window. Last year around Christmas time there were blue jays in the tree outside my living room window. We had never had blue jays until then. I know it was you, checking in. You may be gone but your spirit will live on forever in the hearts that you touched. - Posted by: Lynsey (Granddaughter) on: Jan 27, 2014

  • I'm tempted to say Rest in Peace "favourite Aunt" but I know rest was not a word used much in your vocabulary. If I can be certain of one thing, it is that any garden in Heaven is going to look a lot better now. Uncle Chris, Leonard, Billy, Danny, Joey and your families, a giant heart may have been stilled but our memories will live on. We will miss her. - Posted by: Lloyd (Nephew) on: Dec 08, 2012
