I am so sorry for your loss. I did not know your Mom personally, but feel as if I got to know her through you. She was a strong, loving woman with an amazing sense of humor. I know this as these are characteristics of your family. She will be missed, but will live on in your hearts and memories. Love to you all.

I have 4 brothers and 1 sister we lived just behind your home on Ridout St. I'm sorry to hear of your mom's passing. Many fond memories of times long ago. My thoughts are with you, Karen
