Condolences & Memories (2 entries)

  • The Vadeboncouer family were our neighbors on Lyndale Drive for years. My Mum, Norma Peterson & Grace were best friends who raised their kids together as both their husbands were away working. They were both teachers & wonderful mothers. My brothers John & Paul & myself have fond memories of Auntie Grace. - Posted by: cathy rutherford (Neighour) on: Apr 01, 2026

  • My condolences to Gerald and the Vadeboncoeur family. Mrs. Vadeboncoeur was my grade 2 teacher at Nordale School. Her son, Gerald and I were close friends in elementary school. I have fond memories of spending time at their cottage at Delta Beach and playing hockey in their backyard rink. She was a very caring and patient teacher. May God bless and guide her in her next journey. - Posted by: Stephen Lee (Former Student) on: Mar 31, 2026
