Death notice for the town of: Montreal, Province: Quebec
I am so sorry about Auntie Bella passing away. Throughout my childhood, Auntie Bella and Uncle Irving were always shining stars of brightness for myself and my sister. Auntie Bella was so very kind and always caring, truly a second mother to us. You were very special with all your talents! I will never forget the memories. Peace to you Auntie Bella, you are with Uncle Irving once again.
