Hi mom it's me again. I think of you every day and miss you so much. As I see Kim's daughter Lauren grow up I keep thinking how much you would have loved her. You and dad were such a big part of my life . Now I could really use having you here to talk to. I do talk to you the problem is you can't talk back. Bob has been diagnosed with colon cancer and it is freaking me out. You know the way my mind goes. They are rushing the surgery we go tomorrow for pre op tests and should have surgery within the next 2 weeks. There is a virus here called Covid -19 which is rampant right now in Winnipeg , very contagious and very deadly. It is making things hard . I'm glad you and dad aren't here to have to deal with it. Anyways Ryan is basically ok so is Kim and Breanna and Violet. I just really miss you . Love always :D Sandie - Posted by: Sandra J Duffill (daughter) on: Nov 22, 2020

Hi mom it is 2 Amin the morning over 11 years since you passed. I still think of you almost daily. I love you so much. For years I would see something and think o man I needto phone mom and tell her. You were such an important part in my life I miss you so much. Life has not been easy since you passed away. For years dad kept me strong and now he is gone too. I truly hope you two are reunited in heaven. Right now the way the works is going I am glad you are not here. We are in the middle of a worldwide pandemic. A thing they are calling covid-19 it is killing a lot of people all over the world. Instead of a family Easter supper ( yesterday was Easter ) we ended up seeing Kim and little Lauren ( a great granddaughter you’re never got to meet but would have adored ) in the yard for a few minutes staying at least 6 ft away. Hugs are a thing of the past for now. Life may ever be the same as this virus isn’t something affected by season. A good portion of the world is isolated in their own homes. I f I went anywhere I would definitely get it as I sm now a diabetic, overweight and am over 70 all of which are things that make you mire dicceptible to the virus. It is a very sad time in world history. They say things won’t get back to anywhere near normality until a vaccine is found and that might be a long way off. Anyways I just wanted to keep you informed a bit as I lay here awake and was thinking of you and dad. I love you more than words willever day and I truly hope that someday we might meet again. It probably won’t be that far off. I love you. I know you are I man heaven. Not sure I’m going to make it there but I truly wish you dad grandma and grandpa mcCirmick auntie Alice and auntie I’ll could sleep be reunited. Love you mom. - Posted by: Sandra Duffill (Daughter ) on: Apr 13, 2020
