FLORENCE KATHERINE MILLIGAN (MCNABB)

Condolences & Memories (10 entries)

• Dear Guyle and Debbie - we were so sorry to hear from Lorette today about your Mum's passing. It's always very hard to lose a mother. It's only been 2 yrs since my Mom died, but it's still hard to think about it. Your Mum sounded like a very special person and you were lucky to have had her for all those years. Our deepest sympathy to both of you. - Posted by: Leo and Lorraine St. Pierre (Cousins) on: Sep 12, 2013

• Aunty Florence truly was the "moon in the sky" as Kayla wrote so eloquently. Every time we met, she beamed of love and assurance. When Keegan and Eamon came to Winnipeg to play hockey, they always looked forward to looking up in the crowd to see aunty Florence with her beautiful smile surrounded by family. We will never forget her. Shawn, Whitney, Keegan, Eamon, Tatumn and Kieran - Posted by: Shawn Milligan (Nephew) on: Sep 09, 2013

• As you were the oldest cousin and I was 2nd to the youngest...you were my "hero" for as many years as I can remember. All the time I spent at your house right from when Dawn was a baby to babysitting all the kids (& Buttons who loved me as much as I loved her!) I will always cherish. I too will miss all those hugs, kisses & support you gave me for most of my life. You can now join your "Mom" my beloved Aunt and "Auntie Helen" your beloved Aunt as well as Grandma & Grandpa Pfeil & all the other family members that have gone before! My love and support go out to Edward who I always loved and made me laugh! To Dawn, Guyle, Debbie, Kerry & Greg & grandchildren, my sincere sympathy goes out to you. You were truly Blessed to have one of the BEST Mums on the face of the earth. May all the happy memories sustain you all at this difficult time. - Posted by: "Brendy" (cousin) on: Sep 05, 2013

• Mrs. Milligan was always a special person to us. To Suzie she was that very endearing "Mum" who came into Safeway in Windsor Park and waited in her cashier line. She always was smiling, had something sweet to say and was so very warm. Although Suzie never saw her at home very much with her children, as a friend of Kerry's she learned from Kerry that she was one special "Mum". As for Gerry, he never stopped talking about her gleaming floors! From our relationship with the Macaulay family we know she was a one in a million Mother, Mother-in-law and Grandmother and to them, and to dear Mr. Milligan we extend our deepest sympathies. Regards, The Brisson Family - Posted by: Suzanne and Gerry Brisson (friends of Kerry and Greg) on: Sep 04, 2013

• Aunty Florence you were deeply loved and admired by your Milligan relatives in Regina. Thank you for your ever reliable cards and letters, always written in your beautiful handwriting and never leaving anyone out in your thoughts and concern. We will miss your strength and humour at family gatherings and we want to extend our sympathies and love to your wonderful family in Winnipeg. You will never be forgotten. Your niece, Catherine - Posted by: Catherine Milligan (Niece) on: Sep 04, 2013

• Our sincerest condolences to Ed and the families. Florence was a grand lady...I will miss having little chats with her at hockey! - Posted by: The Corfield's (Friends) on: Sep 04, 2013

• Often words are hard to come by in situations like this. Not in this case. My Aunty Florence was a wonderful woman. She always had time to play when we visited. A game of catch with her bare hands could be expected with every visit. A basement full of toys and interesting things was always there to look forward to. As a parent myself I have often remembered how committed she was and how much she loved her family. Dawn, Guyle and Kerry always came first…and don't forget Buttons and those turtles that occupied a place in the living room. No surprise that a donation to the Humane Society is requested rather than sending flowers. A role model for many, a legendary ball player, and above all a strong, caring woman, I’ll miss you Aunty Florence. Love Dougie - Posted by: Doug McNabb (Nephew) on: Sep 04, 2013
