With heavy hearts but inner peace we

family by her side on Friday, May 25, 2018 at the age of 85. She was

Her unconditional love will always be
remembered by her daughter, Judy (John); Son, Bruce (Rachel);
grandson, Justin (Jenny); granddaughter, Jocelyne (Stephen) and her
dedicated great grandson, Brandon; great granddaughter, Evelyn and
