Condolences & Memories (2 entries)

  • I am saddened to learn of Dee's passing. Although we have not been able to see one another that often after my moving away from Winnipeg, Dee and I exchanged Christmas Cards for 50+ years. Those cards kept us both up to date with families, friends and life in general. I will always remember Dee's great smile and happy cheerful manners when we curled at Rossmere. Also when our family visited the dental clinic where she worked. To Dee's Family I send my deepest condolences and I will always remember Girlfriend Dee. - Posted by: Joey Hyde-Wilson (Stephenson) (Friend) on: Feb 02, 2018

Our world is a sadder place without her. It is comforting to know that she will be laid to rest with the love of her life. Dee, Rest In Peace. We will miss your laughter and beautiful smile❤️ - Posted by: Diane and Norman Beilner (Friends) on: Jan 31, 2018
