Maggie I was very sorry to hear about your mom's passing. Thinking about you and your family at this time.
I am sorry I cannot be with you today, but I wanted to pass on my sincere and deepest sympathy in the loss of your mom Irene. We were neighbors for many years, and then we still stayed in touch when she came shopping at Safeway. I always enjoyed our chats and remember her beautiful flowers in her yard. As I drove by her 4 plex I saw she was still growing beautiful flowers. How she loved her birds! A few times she came running over crying when one had sadly flew away. I remember her talking about "ouweeka" the most. She was such a sweet lady, I hope you treasure your memories of her and may she rest in beautiful peace.
Mama was a great lady filled with kindness and a huge heart. U will be missed. It was my pleasure to know you
My dear mamma. I love you so much. You'll forever be in my heart. I learned so much from you and I know you'll be watching over us all as you always did. RIP
Bye Bye Moma, we will miss you! Since the first day I met you I admired your strong will and your incredible strength. You had the strength as a young woman to come to Canada with your young children and give them a better life and I am forever indebted to you for this for. Without you I would not have met my wife and I would not have the wonderful children that I have today! Love Shane
