In her memory, flowers gratefully accepted, or a donation may be made to the SPCA.

As her children and grandchildren, we are heartbroken at the tremendous loss of this beautiful, special woman. We are also grateful that we had her in our lives for as long as we did and the blessing of her love. She had a beautiful way of making you feel loved and seen and appreciated. She passed away peacefully and has been reunited with her beloved Frank and the precious family members who predeceased her. In her final days she spoke often of her twin brother who died in childbirth and hoped he would be the one to welcome her to heaven.

And true to her nature, her last words to us before she slipped from this world into the next was, “I love you all.”

“To live in the hearts of those we love is never to die.”

 

 

Funeral service will be held 1:00 PM on Monday, June 26, 2023 at Fewer’s Memorial Chapel in Clarenville with interment to follow at the Anglican Cemetery in North Harbour.
