Mary and I were old school friends who sat together at Brookside School and shared the same desk. We always kept in contact as adults through visits and later when Ed and I moved to Calgary through Xmas cards though the last card I sent was returned to me and so we lost contact. I thought of Mary many times in our "golden years" Please accept my deepest sympathy in the loss of your dear Mother and sister. My daughter Sheryl saw the obituary on the internet and has written this for me. - Posted by: Lou Porth (Friend) on: Jun 19, 2006
