Mom, was the greatest person ever! Her whole family is. She brought me into her family and treated me like one of her own. She was there during some of the toughest times of my life (the birth of my son, my cancer and my overall life). She was always there no matter what time of day! She was fair, caring, loving and very proud of her children and grandchildren! She treated my kids like her own grandkids, and to me, she was way more of a mother to me than my own mother.. I am proud to have met her, and got the opportunity to share so much of my life with her.
She was smiling all the time, and laughing and always being positive. She was wise, and just overall a remarkable woman! There is nothing she wouldn't do for someone. She had the greatest compassion and empathy for people and people were attracted to her greatness! Her children/grandchildren should be so proud of their mother. She changed so many lives and I am especially grateful!
Mom will definatly be greatly missed not only by me but by so many. I miss her laugh and just hanging out. I have such great memories of her, driving to Cranbrook and she would always have to stop to get a Whopper Jr, or when things didn't go right with a surgery for my cancer and she rushed to be at my side. Or when the first time she held my son after his birth when he was only a few hours old, or the great wisdom she shared with me and the advice!
My children and I miss her very much and love her with all of our hearts! I am glad we were able to see her again this summer it was an amazing trip and the goal of the trip was reached to see mom again!
She is amazing, courageous, and such a beautiful woman! There are not enough words to describe what an incredible woman she is. She was a saviour and an angel here on earth and always looked out for her family, and she will continue to do so now that she is in Heaven.
The memories I have of her (and of course all of them good) will be with me for the rest of my life! XOXOXOXOXO
Love you Mom! I will miss our phone conversations, or emails and text chats...
Love you with all my heart, and I miss you like crazy!! RIP Mom!
Love Valerie, Chad, Tandra (and of course Chris)
Chad and Tandra say RIP grandma, we love you and miss you, and please take care of Mazon up there. We are glad we got to see you! xoxoxo
Chris thinks she is an amazing woman as well, so kind and caring and he has never met someone like her before.
