    Aunt Joan we had so much fun with you at family gatherings over the years. We are all grateful to have these memories that we will remember forever. Christmases, summers at Barrow Bay and when I was a little girl swimming in the outdoor pool at the townhouse. Michele & Melissa our condolences to you both. She was a beautiful lady with a winning smile. XOXOXOXOO

    Dear Michelle and Melissa,
    Our whole family is so very sorry to hear about your mum. She was such a grand and lovely lady…I can’t remember a summer when we didn’t get together to visit and catch up. I will always remember her kind and genuine heart, her sincere interest in others and most especially her love for you. She will most certainly shine down on you always.
    With love, Lynn, Rick, Mackenzie, JT, Lacey, Billie and Raeanna Gore
