Judy sorry to hear about your mom. I have fond memories of bowling with her and crossing paths with her over the years. She had lots of spunk. My sympathy to you and your family. Heather Blake

So sorry to read of Margaret's passing. We were so pleased to see Margaret and Judy at Dad's service in Delia in 2014. May you cherish those wonderful memories of 'yesterday.' Our condolences to Margaret's family. Sincerely, Larry and Carol Kohsel, Karen Prichard, Bev Schooler

So sorry to hear of your mom's death Judy. It's never easy even if you think you're ready.

I'm so sadden by Margaret passing, being a neighbour, Fred and Margaret were the 1st grand parents that our daughters knew. After Fred passing I looked after Margaret's house maintenance needs in exchange for her fresh baked hot buns. When she relocated in extended care facilities I visited her. When Covid limited visits I taped card messages on her room window. I loved her like my own parent.

Judy so saddened to read of your Mom's passing. She was truly a devoted Mom and Grandma; vibrant, energetic and caring. She always had a smile on her face and a great laugh. She enjoyed life to the fullest! Praying for you and your family at this time of great loss.

Our sympathies to you for the loss of your dear Mother. I'm sure you have many fond memories of her and your Dad, as do many of those who have known them also for so many years past now. They were good people.

So sorry to read of your mom's passing. She was such a kind and gentle lady. You will all miss her. Fran and Connie Lavoie

It is with sadness that I read in the paper about Marg. I remember the many times my Mom & Dad ( Buster & Marguerite ) spent with them, developing a special friendship. That friendship continued with my mom and your mom in later years. Includes me also. Glad I had the opportunity to know her. Sincere condolences to you Judy and all of your family. Lynda Houseman
