Glenn and Laura, Jeff,
Very sorry for the loss of your mother and partner. As you know she and I shared a special bond for many, many years; so many memories and good times. We also shared a very strong belief in the priorities of teaching and I had the greatest respect for her as a teacher.
Will always remember you, Joan.
Laura, Glenn and family: Thinking of you at this sad time. I have great memories of your Mom and her fantastic sense of humour. I don’t think there was ever a time from (even at a “ÿounger” age) that she didn’t make me smile or laugh. I know you will always cherish your wonderful memories of her!
I am so sorry for your loss Glenn, Laura and family. Thoughts and prayers are with you .
