I remember the times at the cottage eating strawberries in the kitchen, playing on the sand with Grandpa and you. I love you so much and I’m so happy that you are now with Grandpa. You have taught me so much and I will hold on to every moment that we shared together. I miss you.
Love Becky
Wow what do I say….. I love you so much, you were such an amazing person, all the memories I have with you, eating zoodles and watching disney movies and sleeping over at the appartment. I am so glad you are with grandpa now, but I have to admit I am a bit selfish and wish you were here with me. I love you and will miss you every day of my life.
I am so sorry to all of you for your loss. Please take comfort knowing that she was ready for this.
Hugs to Ann and all of you.

Ann,Pam,Mary and families:
Rob and I are so sorry that your mom is not longer here with us. She was such a “lady” and we had many great times with her over dinners etc. at Longworth. She was a wonderful friend to my mom for over 70 years (pretty amazing) and we will all miss her and remember her fondly.

Miss Me, But Let Me Go
======================
Author Unknown
When I come to the end of the road, and the sun has set for me.
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room. Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little — but not too long, and not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that was once shared. Miss me, but let me go.
For this is a journey we all must take, and each must go alone. It’s all a part of the master’s plan, a step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick of heart, go to the friends we know.
Bear your sorrow in good deeds. Miss me, but let me go.
(From one who came very close to being your cousin.)
Dear Mary,
I was sad to read of your Mom’s passing. I have wonderful memories of our friendship as little girls attending Mountsfield school, visiting each other’s homes and the way your Mom always looked so stylish! I didn’t realize she had such an interesting past until I read the obituary, but then again when we were young we couldn’t imagine our parents being anything other than Mom and Dad. Sincere condolences to you and your family,
Sydney (Manning) Holody
To Ann, Ron, Becky, Sarah and family:
I wanted to take a moment to offer my condolences for your loss. Ann, your mother’s obituary was emailed to me this morning. I had the pleasure of working with Mary Lee on the London Life Veteran’s videos about 5 years ago. Imagine my surprise to learn that you are family!
She was such a lovely lady with a great story to tell. I’ll never forget working with her.
Hold tight to memories for comfort.
Peace, prayers and blessings,
— Amy Psaila and family
