My grandmother was the toughest and sweetest person I knew. She made sure she taught me how to be tough from a very young age. I can remember being as young as six years old and her telling me everyday before I went to school that I was “Not to take any crap from anybody. Whether it’s a boy or a girl.” I had lived with my grandmother my whole childhood and I never remember a time where she didn’t have a smile on her face. On days where I would be sick and stay home from school I would watch game shows with her while my parents were at work. She would always make a peanut butter sandwich and let me take a bite out of it. And the time it was just a sandwich but now it’s a constant memory. I remember sharing our love for baseball together and her trying her best to play catch with me. I like to think that I got her amazing sense of humour which I am grateful for because she always managed to make everyone laugh, even if she didn’t know them. I remember all the stories she would tell me about from when she was a kid and how she always just wanted to have fun. She was like that right up until the end. She always told me to never take anything too seriously otherwise it’s just boring. My grandmother was and is one of my role models and I always looked up to her, I will always hold her in high regard. I hope she knows that she was loved by so many people, and was the greatest grandmother anyone could ask for. I miss you everyday grandma, I love you so much. Don’t cause to much trouble with the rest of the angels.
I love you,
Danielle.

Mom, your sense of humor was amazing. Always laughing and joking about something and you, have passed that on to your children and grandchildren.
When we were children and lived on the Island, my mom had huge garden in the middle of the yard ( we had a half an acre) and mom would grow everything that she could. She loved being able to plant things and take care of it, she had kind of a green thumb.
My mom had done many jobs over the course of her life, but the one thing that was certain was being a parent. She loved her children and was alway there with open arms, doing what she could to help out. Then the family grew and she had son's in law a daughter in law, and lots of grand children and great grandchildren and her loved just grew. She had many people who adored her.
If you knew her, you would understand what I mean when I say she was a firecracker., had no issues putting you in your place when it was deserved. She was bold, and had no issues facing it head on. You left us with these traits, and I thank you every day for that fierce, no B.S. attitude.
I know that my mom is now resting peacefully, no longer struggling. Greeted by her late husband John, her 2 sisters and other members. They sit there watching over us all to make sure we continue to be safe.
This world won't be the same without her, but her love remains so strong in every person she has ever known.
I thank you that I got to call you mom for 49 years, There is no on else I would have loved to hold that title.
I miss you always and forever love you. Xo

My grandmother will always be held and cherished in deep memory. She was always in a good mood and always had a good sense of humour. Even if I lived further away, whenever I came up she was always happy to see me and greeted me with smiles and hugs. May she now rest in peace and be with my grandfather and may they hold hands while they watch upon us

Anyone who knew my mother Sharon, knew that she had the best sense of humour, would help anyone but took no S#!t from anyone. If you were a lady giving her attitude or a group of men shooting your mouth off to her she would give it right back. No fear!
She was adopted as a baby and grew up getting physically tough at a very early age, she grew up hanging around mostly boys as she told me.
Some of you know the stories.
She also did a lot of jobs in a male dominated working world, like driving taxi cab in downtown Toronto for 25 years and driving school and public buses.
The stories she told us about having to deal with the public
I can only imagine the stories she didn’t tell us.
Sharon like all of us was not perfect, nor did she claim to be. She made her mistakes, some of them she paid for along the way. For me I’d like to think I inherited some of her toughness myself because We lost our father at an early age.
On October 16 I visited my mother in the morning and left at 3 PM. At around 5:00 PM I was watching TV and I suddenly thought to myself, what the heck am I doing sitting here.
I had to go back.
I went back down to Bradford Valley care and sat with my mother till 8:00 PM. She had her moments of being uncomfortable and could not talk just moan. I would stroke her hair and hold her and tell her I was there. I remember whispering in her ear telling her “it’s Jon, I love you and I’m here. I bent over kissed her on the forehead and somehow she found that toughness and strength again reached up grabbing by the back of the head pulled me towards her and kissed me and told me with barely a voice “I love you too.
For 47 years she was always there for me, and somehow at the end of her life by doing that she was there for me again.
Growing up I’ve been called a mama’s boy and I’m proud to say I still am!
I do now, and will always miss my mother!
Thank you mom!
