Thank you Susan. Very easy to love your Mom as she was such a kind person. Even if it had been years between visits, it was like we had never been apart. Thank you too for the kind words about our Mom, such a difficult time for her.

We had such a wonderful visit with your Mom. Sharon, your Mom and I really enjoyed our visit with our Mom in September. A beautiful day to be outside and chat. Sharon and I left with smiles on our faces. Your Mom will truly be missed.

A beautiful eulogy. A kind, gentle and modest lady and always smiling. In later years, she never refused a trip to the ice cream shack. Will miss her.

I remember when we were little visiting with all of you when you lived in Edmonton. Auntie Doreen always held a special place in my heart. A kind and gentle soul. You are all in my heart and prayers. RIP Auntie Doreen.
