Special thanks to her homecare workers, Joy, Wanda, Lorraine, Heather and her girlies at Orams.
Mom loved life to the fullest and was the heart and soul of our family. She loved family gatherings (the more the merrier she would always say), trips up the river to their cabin with Dad, playing cards and the many visits from her grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great- great-grandchild.
Mom loved watching hockey and the occasional debate about who could possibly be better than her loved Montreal Canadians, especially if they were Leaf’s fans. She regularly watched Steve Harvey from Family Feud and loved listening to the music of Daniel O’Donnell and Johnny Reid.
Her dog companions, Lady, Scruffy, Sheeba, Fergie, Tash were loved beyond measure and held a special place in her heart.
Mom you filled our hearts with love each and everyday and you will be missed forever and always.
