I’m sorry we lost touch with your Mom, we had so many good times (parties and dinners) when you boys were young and living in Tsawwassen.
We certainly celebrated her achieving her RN (another memorable evening).
We have lots of good memories as I’m sure you do too.

My mom liked parties? Yes, I guess she did. That might have rubbed off on me. Thank you for your condolences.

Having spent the last three years living with my mother in Vancouver, I can say that she still had many fond memories of friends and family, and she cherished the many great get-togethers she had with all of you, that kept her spirits high while back in Tsawwassen. Her most recent years here in Vancouver were quiet. but i can tell you that she always had a great deal of respect for all you, and thank-you for enriching her life so much. She was especially proud of her two boys, Michael and I, and she will be missed by both of us the most.
