Edna's family would like to extend our appreciation to Deer Lodge Day Hospital for keeping on top of my mother's health issues and providing a weekly outing that she very much appreciated. Also the family would like to extend a very special Thanks to Kay, her neighbour, who was a guardian angel for keeping an eye on mother during my absence and for always being there for her. In addition, I would like to thank Cesne for her continuing support for mother. Our thanks to Grace Hospital and staff for the care mother received in her final days. Cremation has taken place and at her request there is to be no service. Interment will be private. In lieu of flowers please make contributions in her name to the Winnipeg Humane Society.
