She attended school in Morden and was a very skilled player on the local girl's hockey team. She moved to Winnipeg, married and spent her recent years visiting her children and grandchildren. Mavis was also an excellent knitter. Many family and friends cherish the beautiful knitted blankets handmade by our Mother. In compliance with Mavis' wishes a small, private family service will take place later this summer with interment to follow.

Dearest Mom, Another year since you left us so suddenly. It is now almost 2015. Natalia will be five and Aria is one year old. I wish they could have known "Nanny"... I think of you so often and so many people miss you and remember your kind and loving manner. I know you are happy with our beloved Auntie Evie, Grandma and Auntie Doris....so many that we've lost - uncle Vernon, your Dad, and on and on....I wish I had brought you to live with me in Brandon - I think you'd have been happier. I will love you and remember you always. - Posted by: Patricia Brennan (Daughter ) on: Dec 18, 2014

My Dearest Mother, It has been over a year since you left us. I miss you so much and wish I could have brought you out here to Brandon. You would have loved the peacefulness and the tranquil countryside. We still go out to Morden to place flowers for you and Grandma and now also Auntie Doris. I try as much as possible to visit with and not forget the flowers for Auntie Evie. I am certain that you are all happy together now. The family is fine, and you would so love little Natalia. She is a beauty and would make you fall in love with her instantly. Christmas is almost upon us again and it is sad you are no longer here with us. I hope you know how much you were loved and what wonderful memories everyone has of you. You were special Mum and thank you for everything you have given us. Love, Pat 💗 - Posted by: Patricia Brennan (Daughter) on: Nov 02, 2012
