Our heartfelt sadness at loss of your mother. No trip to Quebec for our family was complete without a trip to the farm. Our boys first experience skidooing held so many memories. Aunt Ethel always cooked huge meals for us which were always delicious. She lived a full life and we will miss her. She was loved by us.

Aunt Ethel will always be in our hearts. Craig and Annie join me in expressing our sympathy to you and your families. We will always remember the good memories
at the farm and your Mom's wonderful hospitality to all who visited. My Annie thought
your Mom's white cake with the maple frosting was the best! We will so miss her!
She is so happy in her heavenly home with her loved ones. She is with husband, her parents and her Esther. Our hearts are so sad as we will so miss her.
Love,
Edie
