Family: Sorry to read of your mom’s passing. Myself and brother Keith were regulars of mom’s store on Colborne back in the 50’s. We lived at 191 Colborne, maybe some of you would remember us. She was a good lady and always nice to us, even for penny candy purchases. Again my sympathies to you. Jackie.
Dear Harvey,

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I was very sorry to hear of your mother passing.
When my mother passed away, I told myself that she would be the angel on my shoulder to guide me through the day. Keep that thought in mind and it helps to ease the pain of loss you feel now.
Love Brenda
HI, I am very sorry to hear that your mom passed away but she will be with the Lord. Hope your family are doing well!

For Sue and Gary and the family
I was saddened to hear of the passing of your mother. I’m thinking of you.
Carol, Rick, Jo-Ann, Harvey and Susan and Families:
Just a short note to tell you that Jeanette, Garnet and I are all thinking of you right now.
I know from experience that there is not much that can be said that will make you feel any better right now, but I did want to let you know that all of us share in your sadness. Memories of the Corner Store and your Mom are among the fondest I have of those days. I remember peering over the pop machine and up over the counter up at her as she smiled kindly down. I also remember selling her hockey pool tickets for the Leafs games every week and often enjoying the games in your living room with your all. I am so sorry that I could not be with you now…but I wanted to say that if people are measured by the impressions and marks they leave on others…then your Mom could not have done better. I loved her too and will never forget her.
God Bless you all…
Dean
