As an avid beet grower, Dad served as a director on the Alberta Sugar Beet Growers Marketing Board for several years.

She has been steadfast in her role as mother, wife and grandmother, a strong supporter of her community, church, neighbours and friends. Next to her family, she had a lifelong love of books and gardening and will always be remembered for her loving and giving ways and her always present Irish humor.

Mom was a resident at Crowsnest Pass Long Term Care for nearly 5 years and the family wishes to thank all of the staff for their loving and compassionate care given to mom during this time. We very much appreciate your dedication and wonderful caring support extended to us during Mom’s final hours.
