Dear Vana, I am so sorry I wasn't aware when Myrt passed. She is with the men in her life now. She was a great lady and stronger than those realised. I loved her. Vana I would like to get caught up someday soon. My Mother died 5 years ago and my Dad 2 years ago. I took it very hard. I hope this message gets to you. 403-880-5113. Hdofoo@shaw.ca

Its hard to find the words to express the sadness I feel. You were such a good friend to my mom (Jean Alwood) and always had a smile for me when I needed it. To Muriels family...I send all the healing thoughts to help mend your broken hearts in the loss of your Mom and Grandmother. I wish I could be there to show the profound respect I hold for your mother but distance keeps me away so I shall do so from here and light a candle. Much Luv to you all, Melanie (Alwood) Brais

It's with a heavy heart that I say good-bye to you my dear. Vana and I will get together and remember all the special times around the dinner table, at the farm, at the nursing home. I will remember your kindness towards me and especially towards my mom and your pets. You are together now with all those who have loved you and since passed and we will meet again during this life's journey. I will miss your quick wit and the unique way that you expressed yourself but most of all I will remember you and your family for all you did for those of us who were lucky enough to have you in our lives. With much love Sherry.
