My deepest condolences to your family, Lisa. Your mom was a beautiful person, and I know how loved she was. Her kindness and beautiful soul can be seen through her children and grandchildren. May she Rest In Peace. And my God guide your family as you walk this difficult and painful path 🙁
Dear Tina, Christopher,Lisa and Dayna
My heart is broken. Your mother was like a sister to me and an aunty to my children.
We were instant friends and had many fond memories of our time together spanning over three decades. We loved each other as sisters and there was nothing that we would not do for one another. I will miss her laughter, bright personality and of course her beautiful hand writing that she shared through her heartfelt letters.
I just pray that you will experience the Lord’s presence and draw near to him during this time of mourning.
Dearest Tina,
I’m so very sorry to hear of your loss. Although I never met Mary, you spoke so highly of her. Heaven just gained another angel. My deepest condolences. God bless and May your mom RIP.

Dear Tina and family
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your dear mom. No amount of words can take away your sadness and grief, but it helps knowing that others are expressing their deepest sympathies and supporting the family. Pictures and memories of mom in better times can help us cope. Please continue to love and support each other.
Dear Lisa and family
Our heartfelt condolences for the loss of your dear mother. We are thankful that we have met your mother on a few occasions, she was a lovely lady. May her soul rest in eternal peace. Please share our sympathies with your entire family.
Dearest Children of Mary,
She was dear to me and all of us who knew her in Los Angeles when she was young and rented an apartment here for a short time from a long time friend. Such fun, innovative, doing fun and crazy things to surprise us all. Her sister, Terese lived with me as a young girl at home and we spent time in Hawaii together. She finally went into the Monestary and then came out and finally moved back to Toronto. I am still in touch with her and she informed me of Mary’s too soon passing.
When I visited Toronto, Mary and her then husband took me all over showing the town and then when to a dance party. Most generous loving woman and friend. We kept in touch all these years and always at Christmas time. Deep affection and love we both enjoyed with each other. I was so grateful to have had her for a friend so long.
