I am so sorry to hear about your mom, Sue. You were a loyal daughter. I am sure you have lots of good memories.
-Casie Johnson
I saw what a devoted daughter and son-in-law you were with your mom when she was at the Gardens. Her face would light up when you or your daughters would be in to visit. Hold all the great memories close.
-Bev and Kevin Hall
Dear Sue, your legacy will include the loving support and care given to your parents in their senior years, and especially the daily Long-Term Care visits to your Mom in the last few – playing cards and reminding her of who she was and how she was loved.
Well done daughter ❤️

Gary and Susan and Family,
I was deeply saddened to hear about your Mom’s passing. I have such fond memories of her at Ril Lake — her warm smile and hospitality always meant an open door at the Dorbyk cottage! She will be missed, but never forgotten.

My condolences to you Sue, Gary and your families. Your mom was a saint in my books taking 4 of us girls to the cottage for a week, then to North Bay shopping. What a lovely lady.
