Sadness! My condolences to Brenda and Darlene and your families. Your mother was always kind and generous, and great fun! I remember the good times our families had together — lots of laughter and good times.

I am so sorry for the death of your Mother. I will miss her so much. I live in Royal Gardens in Peterborough . I am so sorry I will not be able to go for the funeral as it is too much of a drive for me, I am so sorry about that . I will send a donation to the alzheimer society in her memory. My son has alzheimer, so I give to them constantly.

Brenda and Darlene, please accept our heartfelt condolences. Gail was a great friend and neighbour to us in previous years (as was your Dad) and not to be forgotten. We will always remember the laughs and stories we shared. Love to you both.
