Ole Lady, it hurt so much to let you go but we could not wish you back to suffer here on earth. You have found the peace that was rightfully yours while on our earthly home, you left us with so many special memories and you touched the lives of many. A woman with a generous heart, a wonderful cook and you filled our lives with laughter, for you had a keen sense of humour, only those close to you knew what a wonderful woman you were and we know that you are enjoying your reunion with the Ole Man (dad) and your nephew, Andy. In life we have choices whether they are good or bad, they affect us but we should not judge or be judged by them therefore "Do not Judge me". Though the world may see me as a sinner, I do not boast, for only God knows that I have faith, he hears my prayers and knows that I believe. Prayers will be held on Saturday, September 4, 2004 at 8:00 p.m. and funeral service will be held on Sunday, September 5, 2004 at 2:00 p.m. at the Stevens Memorial United Church with Reverend John Halcrow and her nephew, Reverend Stanley John McKay officiating. Interment to follow at the Fisher River Cemetery. Our sincerest thanks to the Nursing Staff on the 5th Floor, Unit 4 at Seven Oaks Hospital, and Percy E. Moore Hospital (Nurse Cheryl Thomas, Cousin Pete, Cynthia King) for your kindness and compassionate care. Jim Anderson for prayers. A special thank you also to those who stopped by to be with out Mom and the family. We appreciate the love and kindness you have shown us during this difficult time.
