My dear cousins....Beverly, Linda, Patricia and Nancy, I have just learned this minute that your beloved Mom had passed away. Last that I had heard she was hoping for heart surgery. It wasn’t until I’d read Auntie Emily’s obituary, that I saw the words predeceased by her sisters Elsie, Mary, Helen and Uncle John. Please accept my deepest condolences to all of you and your families. I had to have a little giggle when I read she loved to cook and bake, gardening....it must have been something they all learned from Baba, because those Verhoski women sure knew how to cook. The meals...oh the memory of those meals. So please accept my apologies and my sympathies, memories of your Mom and Dad will be in my heart forever Pam Packer Clydesdale - Posted by: Pamela Clydesdale (Niece ) on: May 30, 2019

Mom, not a day goes by that I don't think about you. You are the Greatest. I think of you everyday, miss you everyday & cry for your being gone. How I LOVE you so which will never fade away. I will miss our phone calls & wished I had visited more often or better yet move back to Wpg to be by your side. Even now I lay in bed for hours talking to you till the wee hours of the morning , in my dreams I can see you & we chat up a storm. When I wake you are the 1st. thing I think about & think of you throughout the day. I have shed a tear or just broke down & cried I miss you so much my heart is broken. You were always there for me when I had Jennifer ( 1st Grandchild) you took the day off work to be with me right in the Delivery room. Maybe that's why you have such a close / tight bond with Jennifer. I often think throughout the day " I should give Mom a call " but then I hits me like a ton of bricks your not here. I know your in a better place, no more pain, no more worry. Now you can have tea with Dad, Aunti Elsie, Aunti Mary, Uncle John & Stephanie. May you rest in piece we all Love & Miss so much. Till we meet again Love you always Beverly - Posted by: Beverly Kittle (Daughter) on: Oct 22, 2018

Beverly, Linda, Patrica and Nancy, I am so very sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. She was a very special Aunt to me. We always kept in touch through Christmas cards and often your Mom would phone me on my Birthday, which meant a lot to me. When I was in town I would visit your Mom with my Mom. Inspite of her many aches and pains your Mom was always so positive and yes she had a wonderful sense of humour. I enjoyed my visits with your Mom and admired her sense of right and wrong and her ability to say what she believed was true. It goes without saying of how much she loved her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, she was so proud of all of you. Living alone is hard and it warmed my heart to see how much comfort her birds brought her. I saw your Mom January 2016 while she was in St B hospital, I'm truly sorry that I was not able to talk to her before she passed and that because I was out of the country I could not attend her funeral. Auntie Helen you will always have a special place in my heart, we had a special bond and I will deeply miss our visits. Love You. My sincere condolences to all of you. - Posted by: Ann Cedergren (Niece) on: Oct 19, 2018

Patty, Bev, Linda and Nancy. My family and I are sorry to know of your dear mother Helen"s passing. So sad. She put in alot of years in more ways than one can count. Our parents age group sure were special to be so determined to make things right in life for their families with what they had. It will be tough to live without having parents around any more. Now we are them. We'll have to try to pay it forward. Our heart felt condolences. The McWhinney family.
