So sorry to hear of the passing of your sister/aunt. Our thoughts are with you at this time.

Bev was a loving and caring person, who will be missed by all who knew her.

Bev and I had many chats after weight watchers and she was always concern about you and your children. Bev always thought of others and also had a kind word to say about everyone.

May all her great memories comfort you and in time replace tears with smiles.

With our deepest sympathy, Bill and Pat Ward

Memories in the Heart

Feel no guilt in laughter, she knows how much you care
Feel no sorrow in a smile that she’s not here to share
You cannot grieve forever, she would not want you to
She’d hope that you can carry on, the way you always do
So talk about the good times and the ways you showed you cared
The days you spent together, all the happiness you shared
Let memories surround you.

A word someone may say
Will suddenly recapture a time, an hour, a day
That brings her back as clearly as though she were still here
And fills you with the feelings that she is always near
For if you keep these moments, you will never be apart
And she will live forever locked safe within your heart

Our thoughts are with you all right now.  Bev will be forever in our hearts and memories.  Last night we all had a good cry and a few smiles as the girls shared some memories. Katie, Julia and Claire are the most important part of our lives, and Bev was trusted with their well-being for 8+ years. This will never be forgotten.

I feel badly that we did not visit much while Bev was in the hospital, but felt that it was your time, not ours.  I just hope that Bev knows how much she means to us.

Rick, Penny, Annika & Lex,  Donna, Anthony, Christian & Tanner,  Trudy, Doug & Thom and family members,

There are few words one can say at a time like this to ease the pain and sadness.  I want you to know how I admire your strength and courage throughout these last 2 months.  You have been there for each other, showing so much love and support, and most importantly for Bev.  You had time with her and also with each other.

There were many nights Bev and I would connect after our WW meetings in Windsor.  She could always make me laugh and there were nights we stood and chatted endlessly about The Points Plan, The Family, and sometimes just life in general.   I am sure you each have many great, lasting memories of her wonderful sense of humour. 

Take care of each other, one step at a time...and know that we are here for you too. 

Thinking of you,
Tami, Drew, Logan & Lauren
