I remember Aunty Doris as such a beautiful person with her loving smile. She came to visit mom at the lodge a few years ago that was very very special to us. Condolences and hugs to you all.
Ken, Lee Ann, Marilyn, Harvey and Sharon
My deepest sympathies to all at this time of loss. Your mom was a wonderful woman, hold on to the blessings of life you shared with her.
Memory Eternal
Ken, Lee Ann, Marilyn, Harvey and Sharon
I wanted to express my deepest sympathies to you and your extended families at this time.
I will always remember Auntie Doris as a kind and gentle woman. In addition to her many other great qualities, I will also remember her as a wonderful sister and friend to my mother Katie.
May her memory be eternal. Doris and my mum grew up together. They were neighbours and the farms near Desjarlais, Alberta.
My deepest sympathy to my dear cousins and their families.
Auntie Doris was a beautiful soul and will always be remembered for her soft heart and kindness.
May your memories bring you comfort during this difficult time.
Memory Eternal
