She was a kind, caring, strong but sensitive person. She lived modestly and made her family her first priority. She will always be remembered for her generous love and appreciation of family and all who came in contact with her. Mom’s joy was derived from the simple things in life such as a loving touch, spending time with family and friends, music, and dancing.
Mom appreciated, and we were comforted by, the wonderful compassionate care she received during the last years of her life. We extend a special thank you to her care companion and friend Michelle Stanton, staff at the Cathedrale Manor, and the care team of the Golden Door Geriatric Centre.
