    Pam and Mike
    Most weekends, I would see the 2 of you hop into the little red car to drive to see your mom. Rain, shine, blizzards and beautiful days when the inclination was to stay home and watch the grass grow. You squeezed out every precious moment you could with her. She was loved and she loved all of you more than you will ever know. She will rest in peace.

    To the family. My most sincere sympathy in the recent passing of your sweet souled mother. I met her at St. Andrews Terrace and she was truly a breath of fresh air, always taking ones hand and placing a soft sweet kiss on it. She loved showing her affection by holding ones hand. You girls were good to your mother and one of you were always there to spend time with her. I was so devastated to see her picture posted and my sister calling me to tell me of her passing. Barb, thank you for your little chats, and the encouragement you would give me with regard to my son. My sister and I will truly miss seeing your mother on Pub nights but I can always look back at my Blackberry and view the adorable video I took of her playing the bongo drums at Talent Night. Not sure of the youngest daughter’s name but she sure does look like her mom in this picture. On another note, dear Lenore passed away on my brithday, Aug 29th. Something I will always remember. May memories of her remain in your hearts forever. With the short time I knew her, I have a soft spot in my heart for her. May God Bless you all and know that your mom is now an angel watching over you. Hugs and love to you all., Linda

    Please give my regards to your family as well.
    Thinking of you and sending you a big warm hug.
    Love,
