For those that are unable to attend the celebration, it will be live streamed and posted on the McCaw Funeral Service Website under Penny’s Obituary.
The family would like to send their sincere gratitude to the nursing staff at Lady Minto for the exceptional care that Mom received the past year and a half, especially to Giselle and Martha who were with Mom the afternoon she passed away. Mom was treated like a princess by all the staff at Lady Minto and we are so blessed to have had you care for our Mom. Thank you to Dr. Behnami for your care for Mom during her times in hospital and in long term care, as well to Dr. Campbell who also provided care for Mom during her final few months.
