Thinking of mum, brings joy & happiness to my heart. Mum made me laugh then & still makes me laugh! So many giggles… I will miss Mum for sure! I think of Mum daily! She taught me so much! I will follow her footsteps through life! She had a great moral compass!
Grandma Ann spoilt her grandsons with love & lots of attention! Grandma loved Bradley & Kyle when they were little & enjoyed their company! When they got older, Grandma volunteered her time to help at Brad (Alyssa’s) inside and out & to help Kyle! She enjoyed helping others!
So many great memories! We could chat for hours with grandma in person or by phone! Had lots of good laughs! We never think of grandma as old, because Grandma has always been young! She taught us so much, shared her wisdom & love. Grandma played a big part in our life! Love you grandma! (You have a place in our Heart forever!).
Ann treated friends like family and family like friends! Ann is remembered by numerous family & friends for her wonderful sense of humour & friendship! Ann meant so much to ALL of us! She loved us lots! She was a thoughtful, caring friend.
A Loving Daughter, Mum, Sister, Aunt & Niece.
