Condolences & Memories (4 entries)

  • I always just knew Lydia as Grandma Sangster. She always made me feel young inside because I think that is how she looked at life. She made me smile and laugh when I sat down to listen to her stories which she had a lot of. I only hope that I will have the spirit that she did the time that I knew her. Paul and Jen, Linda and Bruce, Doug and Carol sorry for your loss. - Posted by: Bruce Eberling (brother to Paul Eberling) on: Apr 25, 2013
