Still in shock about your mothers passing. I knew her from scrabble club and she was a very faithful member and always fun to play. I have been in South Carolina since nov 1 and spoke to her just before I left. Sorry I did not realize how sick she was and she was her usual cheerful self. I will miss her and my thoughts are with you. Our birthdays are just a few days apart and the same year. Just so sad.

Shannan Beth, and families, I am so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. She was a great neighbor, and we developed a great friendship over the years. She always kept herself very busy, and I will always remember her puttering in her garden, and the joy her travels brought her after her retirement. Thoughts are with you during this painful time.

~ Wendy Durnin

My sincere condolences to the Gifford clan and family. I had the pleasure of meeting Gail many times over the years, from those days way back at Norm and Joan's home on the Ausable River in Grand Bend, and through Eggett family gatherings. Always that great smile!
