    Bonnie,

    I am very sorry to hear of your mother’s passing and hope in time you will move forward and take comfort in how much pride and love your mother had for you.
    I have known Frances since 1999 when I lived at Thistledown Way. I always appreciated her strong stance and activism concerning condo issues. She was a great neighbour who was very supportive when I was going through my own personal crisis.
    She always talked of how proud she was of you and of course her drives and car trips with you.

    Take care of yourself,

    Stephen Walmsley

    Bonnie, Ed just called and told me about the passing of your mother. I am so sorry, I know how very close you two were, and how you shared so many wonderful times together not only as a mother and daughter, but as best friends. The picture that is posted on the Obituary website is so appropriate, your mother, my aunt looks like an angel. Lord knows she had her hard struggles in life, but she made it through with flying colors without compromising her values and beliefs. Her dedication to her family and friends made her truly a person to be respected and admired. I for one will never forget my long talks with her, her warm smile and generous laugh. Those talks, though not that often during these past fews years were always uplifting and I always learned something new about our family. I will never forget her, she was my favorite Aunt and I loved her. Bonnie, I hope it will comfort you to know that she is with the Lord, our saviour. She is creating a home in heaven as she did on earth – filled with warmth, love and laughter. Bonnie, if you ever miss her just close your eyes and think of her warm smile and laugh – she will never be far from you. We all love you, and are thinking of you. J&V

    Hi Bonnie,
    I am so sorry to hear about your mom. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. She will always be with you.
    The Final Flight
    Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free,
    I’m following the path God laid for me.
    I took his hand when I heard his call,
    I turned my back and left it all.

    I could not stay another day,
    To laugh, to love, to work, to play.
    Tasks left undone must stay that way,
    I’ve found that peace at the end of the day.

    If my parting has left a void,
    Then fill it with remembered job.
    A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
    Ah, yes, these things too I will miss.

    Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
    I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
    My Life’s been full, I savoured much,
    Good friends, good times, a loved one’ touch.

    Perhaps my time seemed all too brief.
    Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.
    Left up your heart and share with me,
    God wanted me now, He set me free.
