Condolences & Memories (2 entries)

  • Dear Auntie Mary .. I know that you are no longer in pain and healthy again and with your loved ones, rest in peace now ... Right from the time I could talk and met you, I never stopped calling you "Auntie" right up to the time Mom and me visited you in Steinbach .. I know you loved this, as you mentioned "she still calls me Auntie" when I saw you last .. I remember always looking forward to your visits when you would fly to Winnipeg from Hawaii or drive from Chicago and stop in to see Mom .. "Auntie Mary is coming" .. or later in years our lunch trips for Curry / Asia Food ... You, Mom and Alison were 3 peas in a pod .. I will take care of Mom as you and Alison are now reunited .. Mom misses you so so much .. hope you stop for a "visit" .. You will be so missed by many .. Loved forever ..

  • Mary, you were an inspiration, a role model and a testimony of God's love and goodness. Your chair in the front row is so very very empty. We will miss you for a little while but we'll see you again. Save a front row seat for us. - Posted by: Marie-Daurice & Hartley (Friends) on: May 06, 2015
