Dear Diane, Chris, Tom and Tracy,

Your Mom and Dad were fixtures in my life from the age of ten when we moved to Brantford and all of the way through as my Mom continued her friendship with both of your parents and then latterly with your Mom, Anne. I recall all of the bicycle trips that those two made through the country roads from Brantford to Ancaster and various places in between. They were good company for each other.

I remember your Mom's kind and gentle spirit, her love of her garden and of cooking fabulous food. In fact, just a few short years ago, she made me a wonderful soup for lunch after I took her for one of her medical appointments.

Your parents' love for their children and then grandchildren was so obvious as they enjoyed and supported you in every way.

Blessing to your whole family.

Nancy

Dear Diane, Chris, Tom and Tracy - Deepest condolences on the passing of your mother. Anne was a strong woman who loved you all deeply. I will always remember her grace and her beauty - her wonderful laugh.

Best wishes

Dear Tracy, Greg, Tom, Chris, Damien, Megan, and Melissa

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your mom and grandmother. As an outsider, I remember her as a proud grandmother to Melissa and Damien, and that she used to take them to the symphony....I admired your parents for being so active in their retirement, taking those bike trips to France. Your mom always struck me as so confident and realistic, and I'm sure you will miss her guidance and wisdom. May your memories of both your mom and your dad comfort you through these next few difficult weeks,

Diane, Chris, Tom and Tracy,

Our deepest condolences to you and all your family on the loss of your mom. Our thoughts are with you. Aunt Anne will be fondly remembered by all of us.

Amy,

on behalf of Eva, Murray, Tedd, Miriam, and David
