Dear Mom
Today was very special for all of us. Your Celebration of Life was just beautiful. Lots of tears and laughs were had by all your family and friends. So many of your friends attended and enjoyed the day with us. Your Woodward’s and Bank of Montreal pals were there in full force along with the many dear friends you made while at Hallmark. Bryan gave a heartfelt tribute to you ( on the Cutler) behalf as I (put it this way) tearfully wouldn’t have been able to finish it. Pizza what Grandma? George’s speech was wonderful, thanking everyone and relating about all the good times and funny experiences. Your dear friend Marjorie Armstrong spoke also and talked about your humor and kindness for all the people whose path you crossed. The Staff at Hallmark did a wonderful job catering your event and are to be commended for a job well done not only today but during your stay with them.You’re with Dad now, I know he’s been waiting for you, so now the two of you can both enjoy that glass of ” Medicine” together and look down on us and know we will make it. It’s hard for me to say goodbye, so I won’t. You will always be with me and I know you are now in a peaceful place. Sweet Dreams and give Dad a big hug for me
Love you
Diane

Our deepest condolences. Our love, thoughts and prayers are with you. Aunt Marg was an exceptional lady and she’ll always have a special place in our hearts.
“When we lose someone we love it seems that time stands still. What moves through us is a silence… a quiet sadness… a longing for one more day. We may not understand why you left this earth before we were ready to say goodbye, but little by little we remember not just that you died, but that you lived and that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget.”
