Heartfelt sympathy. Only just found this
Lorna and John, our thoughts are with you.
Dear Roxanne, Nancy, Lorna, and Debbie, Your mother was a wonderful woman who loved to sing and share her love of music. My mother and I used to enjoy her company, terrific smile, and hearty laugh, during her stay at Rosewood. She was quite a friendly woman who was always open to a good chat about her family and her many singing engagements over the years. Cherish the many memories of your dear mother. Sincere condolences to her entire family. Madeline Patricia Moore March 17, 1934 - December 21, 2023 - REST IN PEACE -

My sincere sympathy to the family. Altho I knew Maddie for only a few months I became very fond of her and looked forward to our chats which were mostly filled with laughs. She was a bright light and will be very much missed here at Rosewood.
Madeline was always a joy to be around. We missed her when she moved to Cobourg. Our condolences to her family as we know how much she’ll be missed
My condolences to Madeline‘s family. She was the loveliest lady with a big heart. I will be forever grateful for the friendship she had with my dad, Georges, at Rosewood. They laughed and sang together often, and her kindness enriched his life. Madeline was such a wonderful person and will be dearly missed.

Maddie was one of the first people I met at Rosewood. She was always so friendly and had a quick and amusing response to anything you said to her. We miss Maddie now and going forward.
I sang with Madeline in Trinity Church Choir - music gave her so much joy. She was a pleasure to her fellow choristers.
I got to know Maddie in Rosewood Estates, she was a very special lady to all who knew her. She was usually very upbeat and had a wonderful sense of humour. Once in a while she may get a little out of sorts, we would only laugh at her, and she would end up laughing as well. I loved her like a sister and will miss her easy smile and fun we had together. My deepest condolences to all the family Erma Fraser, apartment 236
I love you Aunt Madeline. A most talented woman. You’ll be singing and playing the piano in heaven. Your niece Betty ????
RIP Madge My condolences to the family.
Deb, Roger and family. Thinking of you at this difficult time
