She met Dad at a Junior Hockey Game and one year later they were married which started an 11 year journey of being a Hockey Wife. They lived in the U.S. for a number of years, during this time she lovingly raised her growing family. The family settled back in Winnipeg after hockey.

My dearest Mom, I miss you just as much or more than when you left me. It is now 3 Years ago, the kids are beautiful and growing, your little red head is not red he is bright orange. If only I could hear your voice, life would be more calming , you will always be my inspiration, my rock, and my strength. Thank you my dear mommy for putting me on a pedestal and giving me the strength to carry on and be the best mommy I can be. I love you mom. Love Jodine - Posted by: Jodine (Youngest child) on: Jan 01, 2014
