Lorna was predeceased by her son Max and grandson Philip. Mom was born on July 10, 1914 in Sinnett, SK. She married Philip in Flin Flon, MB in 1934. Mom had a great love of nature and the outdoors and a love for all living creatures. She was a devoted Catholic and an active member of the Catholic Womens League.
