Gail Westbrook - September 3, 2020

Dear Gerald, Craig, Heather, Heidi and Jon Sending our deepest condolences and love to your families. Every member of a family has a unique roll to play and Aunt Lois began her roll at an early age. She was only 10 years old when her older sister (Jean) started to have children. We had a wonderful Aunt, who never really grew old. Aunt Lois was committed to her nieces and nephews. We basically grew up together, she was our big sister. Even after she married Gerald, she continued to support our mother by taking us kids for days at a time. The memories I will cherish, for they are truly priceless! Aunt Lois was one of a kind, one in a million. Selfless, courageous, generous, a people person, and that cheery smile no one scan forget. “Think of her living in the hearts of those she touched, for nothing loved is ever lost.” She was loved so much. I love you Aunt Lois every day and I miss you every day. Say hi to Mom, I know she has been waiting for you.

Lesley-Ann Ahee - September 3, 2020

Uncle Gerald, Craig, Heather, Jon and Heidi Looking back on my memories of Aunt Lois makes me smile. You all were such a huge piece of growing up and I wouldn’t change it for the world. I always admired Aunt Lois’ no nonsense approach to life. She taught me so much ( who else could have helped me with my Girl Guide cooking badge !). Memories of family gatherings, special dinners, road trips ,and drop in coffee visits make my heart happy. Until we meet again, rest well Aunt Lois💕

Ken and Sharon Harper - September 3, 2020

We are so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. Please extend our condolences to your father and the rest of your family. Take care!

Kathleen Gray - September 3, 2020

Dear Heidi, I often remember the funny stories you would tell me about your mother, when you were growing up. She always struck me as a fun-loving woman. I know these last few years have been difficult with her declining health. You have always remained the dutiful daughter, trying to make adjustments to keep her safe and comfortable. I'm so glad that restrictions were lifted, so you could see your mom these past couple of months. But these circumstances are most unfortunate during times of grieving. Please take care of yourself! My condolences to Heather, Jon, Craig and your dad, as well. xo

Susie Roberts - September 3, 2020

Heidi, to you and your family, please know my thoughts and prayers are with you. Your Mom made me laugh and I know her heart and love for life lives on with her children. You are family so know you always have our support and love.
