    Very sad to hear of her passing. She was such a caring and responsible nanny for many years and continued to be a dear friend to our family. Our heart-felt sympathy to all of her family. Pat, Patrick, Gordon & Kathleen

    I am very sad to hear this news.
    Mrs. Purdy was like a grandmother to me. Only grandmother I ever had, really and truly.
    She was the most loving person and such a big part of my childhood.
    I was lucky enough to see her a couple years ago, and introduce her to my own daughter.
    She will be very missed. The world was a better place with her in it. I know my world was.
