Dear Scott, Jacqueline, Becky and Greg: It was such a blessing to share in the celebration of your mom and grandma on Monday. I (Julie) was reminded of her as a faithful Sunday school teacher at our church. Even up to the past decade she always kept her 'spark', with a twinkle in her eye and a jolly laugh (head thrown back) as people would stop to talk with her at her 'post' in the church foyer :) When we got to know you guys in a more personal way through Bible quizzing and Jr. High, we admired your willingness to have her live with you - a testimony to God's grace in your lives and a good example to our boys as they interact amost daily with their grandma. It's not always easy to be so close, but we will never regret honouring them, and we will cherish even their quirkiest ways in our memories :) Sorry we could not stay after the funeral since we had Doug's brother & sister-in-law here from Saskatchewan. Our prayers are with you still, as we know from experience that there will be much to finish up in the coming weeks and months. Love from, Doug, Julie, Josh & Zac
