    We are very sorry to hear of the loss of your mother and grandmother. She was a wonderful lady and a great human being. Marjorie’s devotion to her family shone through everything she did. She will be remembered by all who encountered her, especially those of us who were fortunate enough to be the recipient of her good-natured volunteer work.

    Dear Lynda, Hans, Greg, Sari, Anne, Sheila, Marlene, Myrna, Greg, Molly and
    Amy:

    Robert, Lorraine, Neil and I wish to extend our deepest sympathy, and to
    express our regret in not being able to attend Aunt Marjorie’s funeral
    service. When we discovered that all the highways out of Goderich were
    closed, we tried an alternate route on back roads only to find the roads
    very slippery. The driving was so slow that we realized we would never make
    it to the service on time. Words can not convey how sorry we are that we
    could not share in this final tribute to your Mom.

    Our thoughts have been with you, especially during the last few days. Your
    Mom will be greatly missed. She led a busy and active life. She was great
    company for Mom and I’m glad they were able to do so many things together.
    I’ve had many personal thoughts over the past few days. I’ve been
    remembering all the Sunday and holiday visits we had when we were kids, and
    how much I looked forward to those get-togethers! I’m so grateful that we
    had a visit with your Mom a Lynn’s shower and again at Mom’s after Birr
    decoration.

    Once again, I want to say how deeply distressed I am that we were not able
    to make it to the service. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

    Love Karen
