    Our sincere sympathy to the family on Jessie’s passing. She was a wonderful person, so kind and caring. Whenever we visited , she always made us fell welcome . Every year we travelled to NL to visit family and always dropped by to see Jessie and Cousin Clarence and then years after his passing, to see her and Roy. It was so nice to see her happy again with a great partner.
    We will miss her great conversations and gentle personality.
    Thinking of you all at this sad time.

    My Heartfelt condolences to Donna and Arthur. Her son David worked with us for several years and was a
    good friend, he always looked forward to his Mom visiting. All three of us went to dinner on a number of
    occasions, shared some laughter and good times. The food packages from home were always a surprise
    and enjoyed by the staff of Spiaggia. I am sure David is waiting for her, and we will say a prayer for her soul.
