Death notice for the town of: Petrolia, Province: Ontario
To my favourite person in the whole world. I will miss your happiness, your positive outlook despite all the physical challenges, and your “always being present” to/with me when I needed you. .You taught me so much about music, farm life, how to love. You taught me by example how to be a great mom who never did give up. You and Murray always kept the door open for me, and provided a blanket and pillow, and a loving ear the next morning. I will continue to thank God for your part in my life. My sincerest condolences to Murray and the boys.
