I am so sorry for the loss of your dear mom. Through friendship with Henri, I got to know a great and Loving family! Your entire family was an example to all families and as families should be... a place to gather, a place to share and a place where memories live on. That family could not have been without your Loving Mom and Dad who lived life in faith that God was there watching over all of you.

My dearest Grandma, I was so sorry to hear of your passing. Your loss has left a hole in our hearts. We were so very lucky to have had you in our lives. I remember the huge wonderful garden in the back yard, as well as the amazing hot summers at the beach, when we visited you as a child. You were a great cook, making the best peas in cream sauce as well as your famous meat pies… These are by far some of my best memories growing up. Thank you for all you did for us. You will be dearly missed ... but I know you are with Grandpa now just as you would want….. but know you are loved from all across the country. Thank you Grams. Love you.
