God looked around his garden, and found an empty space. Then he looked down upon this earth, snd saw your tired face. He put his arms around you, and lifted you to rest. God's garden must be beautiful, as he only takes the best! I will miss you Auntie Jerry! Love you, Bev - Posted by: Bev Hopkins (Niece) on: Sep 08, 2016

Our deepest sympathies to all the Strath family. To us, your mother will always be fondly remembered as "Grandma Jerry," a wonderful woman who came into our lives and cared for our children when they were very young. She was an amazing woman, loved by everyone she met, and we feel privileged to have known her. She will be sadly missed, but always remembered with a smile. - Posted by: Heather and Les McFayden, Kelowna BC (Friends) on: Sep 08, 2016
