A very warm thank-you to the staff on Weatherby 2 Extended Care Pavilion at Peace Arch Hospital for making the last years of her life comfortable and engaged.

A private Family Memorial and Funeral Service was held on February 18, 2005.

in lieu of flowers, she would ask those who wished to donate, to donate one hour of their time to visit a lonely resident of an extended care facility who does not have the family and friends she so enjoyed.
