The family would like to personally thank Dr. Nugent and the caring staff at LaVerendrye for having made her final months comfortable. Also we would like to thank Sandy McKinnon, Anne Zucchiatti for their extra special attention. Thank you to everyone who took the time to stop in and visit, and drop off
goodies (and champagne) for her to enjoy.
On March 16, 2022 there was a great article printed in the Fort Frances Times about her life. Thank you to Merna for writing this wonderful story.
Don’t think of her as gone away, her journey’s just begun
Life holds so many facets, this earth is only one.
Just think of her as resting from the sorrows and the tears
In a place of warmth and comfort where there are no days or years.
Think how she must be wishing that we could know today
How nothing but our sadness, can really pass away.
And think of her as living in the hearts of those she touched
For nothing loved is ever lost and she was loved so much.
