Your mother was a very special woman, wife, friend and educator who made a difference to not only her own family but to countless others during her life time. Cherish the great memories. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. 

Marlene and Brian Murray

Your folks were wonderful people Howie! Their charm and caring of others made them special. We loved their sense of humour and enjoyment of life. Dad growing his garlic and mom with her bits of life wisdoms. I loved them and will miss them both now.

Hi Howie,
Sorry to hear about your mother. She certainly led a wonderful life and you should be extremely proud of her.Take care.

Herb , Maureen and Brian: Your Mother is a jewel. Mary like your dad Allan were very instrumental in the progress of my life. Growing up with Howie will have many memories of Mum and Dad keeping us in control. My fondest memory is always Christmas Eve, going back to your home after midnight mass and be treated to the most culinary delight of "Melted cheese with bacon on toasted bread". Like your Dad, she will never be missed because they will always be in my heart and thoughts. John and Kathy Bonneville and your friend Bone.

Howie And Family,
 We will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers. She must have been a very special lady.

Howie and Family,
Please accept our sincere condolences on your mother's passing. She must have been a wonderful mother to have had such a fine son and educator as you are How. We did not know her but we know you well and we are sorry for your loss.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  May your memories bring you comfort.
