  • So sorry to hear of Marcella's passing. She was a great lady and lots of fun.

My condolences to all the family you have lost a wonderful mom, grandma and friend. Always remember all that she gave you and all of her blessings. - Posted by: Michelle hazelton (Long time friend of family) on: Apr 04, 2015

  • My Mother, Yvonne, is so sorry to hear of the loss of your dear mother. They had not seen each other in years. The last occasion may have been a birthday celebration for your Mother? They were the same age so mobility &distances made visits impossible. Over the last few years they lost telephone contact. But Mom still spoke of your Mom...just last week as a matter of fact! She is back in the old neighborhood at Seven Oaks Hospital and spoke about your Mom, the farm & where all of you are living....Edmonton, San Francisco, Teulon, & Winnipeg. Yvonne has fond memories of your Mom & sends her heartfelt condolences to all the family. Her thoughts &prayers are with you. Unfortunately she won't be able to be with you to celebrate your Mom's life as she is recovering from a broken hip. I am also sorry for your loss & will keep you in my prayers...Lorna...Yvonne's daughter - Posted by: Yvonne Schreiber (Old friend from the farm days) on: Apr 04, 2015
