How fortunate we were to have had the gift of time and memories with Auntie Jean. All the love she gave now lives in her family.
I express my deepest sympathy in this time of great sorrow. The Bible gives a comforting hope that your loved one will come to life again on a peaceful paradise earth when death will be no more in John 5:28, 29 and Acts 24:15.
Thank you Vera, for ALL your family did to make the passing of our Aunt Jeannie comfortable, kind and honourable. Brian and I respected Jean. Her determination, her devotion as well as her sense of fun and adventure were inspirations to us. The lifetime of caring she showed all of us, will remain a loving memory.
We never met Mrs. Smith but we knew of her son Terry and wife Karen for quite a few years. They spoke a lot of Mrs. Smith. We would like to send our condolences to Terry, Karen, Vera, Ralph and the rest of the family. May Jean RIP.
