It was a pleasure to become a friend and care provider for “Audrey” during her time spent at Maitland Manor. She provided us with funny faces and stories about her past and present. I remember her telling me that only her father called her “Adriana” and that was special to her. Your family has been dedicated to your mother throughout her life and until the final moments of her life. I am sure she will be shining down on you and your families for a long time, up there now reunited with your father. Take care of yourselves, and we will definitely miss all of your smiling faces… Anne, Tony, Adrian and Cathie. It was a pleasure to know you all.

Tony and Anne, our sincere condolences to you and your family. When we went by your old house down the street last evening and I said to Terry ” I wonder how the DeCoos are doing ?” We drive by it a hundred times a month and say nothing…..I guess you were in our thoughts for a reason.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and may all the wonderful memories of your Mom give you peace.
Hugs from old friends and neighbours,
Terry & Evelyn
