Hello to you Wilma and Family – I was sorry to read in the Beacon Herald about the passing of your Mom and wanted you to know that I was thinking of you. You will miss her a lot, but a celebration of her long and happy life and having her with with you for a nice long time, I hope will help and be remembered. I did not know that Sharon now lived in Waterloo. Please remember me to her as well and of course, Wayne, Brendan and Jill. Sincerely, Gloria Staines
