Donation to Mindemoya Hospital Auxiliary, CNIB or your personal choice will be appreciated. She lived a life of dedication and commitment to her family, community and God (her faith). She lived her faith. Her door was always open to whoever may wander in for a coffee, meal or a night’s stay. She was a perfect cook and baker, one never left her table hungry. If some one was sick in the neighbourhood she was often first to provide a meal or a helping hand. The grandkids always knew there would be homemade goodies ready for them (pies, buns, cookies, bread). She drove school bus for 30 years or more, she always kept good order on the bus. Devoted grandmother and bus driver. Will always be remembered by many nieces, nephews and friends. Family and friends gathered at Island Funeral Home on Thursday, July 2, 2015 from 7 pm to 9 pm.
