Dear Kim, Dan and family,
Our thoughts are with you. Losing your mom is hard – moms are just so cherished! We know you were close to your mom, Kim and Were glad that you have such wonderful family around you to support you now. Your mom’s wisdom, love and words will be forever with you.
Thinking and praying for you in this tough time.
Dear Kim, Barb, Brad, and Karen,
Sending love from the Kennedys and deepest sympathy to you all as we remember your dear mother, Marion.
Our moms were kindred spirits and I have so many cherished memories of them together that I will treasure forever.
Marion was a wonderful storyteller, a budding author, and very proud of her BA in anthropology studied at Western. One of the last stories she shared with me was her infamous trip down the steep Moscow subway escalator hoisted securely under the arms of a burly Russian woman, and being greeted with a stunned reaction from your father and “Cath” waiting below.
Marion was such a loving, gentle, endearing soul with a wonderful sense of adventure and kind humour. Your mother meant the world to me, and it was such a privilege to be included in her circle of friendship. I will miss her dearly.
Love and prayers, Catherine “CM” Kennedy & family
Dear Kim, Brad, Barb and Karen,
We had the privilege to know your mom, and the fortune to be touched by her kindness and generosity. She was a most gentle individual, who taught the people around her how to be positive and embrace life. She will be greatly missed.
Our thoughts are with all of you.
I was fortunate to live on the same floor, at Queens Court, as Marion for a couple of years. She was lovely, always so warm and welcoming.
It was a pleasure to know her.
My sympathy to her family whom she adored and was so very proud.
She will be missed.
