Dear Pat, George and Robert and family, Mom and I send you our sincere sympathy at the loss of your Mother. Please know that Janice Scherpenzeel (née Hayes), Diane LeClair (née Mayhew) and Joan Lodwick and her daughter, Linda Chase, also send you their condolences. I thought that the obituary was well-written and the photo was great -she aged well and looked marvelous. I am sorry that events took such a sudden turn in her well-being. I have wonderful memories of your Mom's wit and will remember her in my prayers. I had arranged to have someone stay with Mom on Monday afternoon in order to attend the service. However, Mom was not well today. If she has not improved by this morning, I may not be able to attend. Big hugs and take good care. - Posted by: Christine Ball and Marjorie Sizeland (old friends of family from Renfrew Street days - Christine is Kevin Cameron's Godmother) on: Mar 11, 2013
