My deepest sympathy is extended to you all at this time. I first met Jean when I joined IODE Carstairs back in 1992. What a lovely person she was. Always happy, and always had a kind word for every one. Have wonderful memories of your Mom, Iris and Sheila back from IODE A lovely lady who will be really missed. God Bless! Cathy Grimsdale
Dear Kay, Tyson and family: We were very sorry to hear of your mother's passing. Bob and I had coffee at The Radio in Carstairs when your mom and Iris were there. We had quite a visit with them and one of the things she mentioned was her wonderful daughter and grandson. She said how lucky she was. Please accept our condolences.
Dear Kay, Tyson, Griffin & family: Please accept our deepest sympathy on the untimely passing of your mother Jean. It was such a shock to realize so quickly that she would not be there chatting to us across the fence, seeing her working in the yard, taking her daily walks around Carstairs. You just never know how quickly things can change, how the backyard is now still and quiet. She was such a lovely lady and we will miss her dearly. We will cherish her memory forever as the wonderful lady she was. We are so sorry that we are unable to attend her service because we will be out of the country, but our thoughts and our prayers are with all of you.
Kay, Tyson and Griffin: I was so sorry to hear about your mom and grandma. She was a wonderful person and I am sure she will be missed. I always enjoyed chatting with her. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
