Mary was deeply dedicated to the Roman Catholic faith, Catholic Women\u0092s League and a Eucharistic Minister.\u00a0 She touched many people\u0092s hearts with her kind words and her beautiful smile.<\/p>\n

Peacefully with her devoted husband and children surrounding her with their love and prayers, Mary was carried into the hands of God.<\/p>\n

The Sadler family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to the wonderful medical staff for their caring and respectful support that was offered to Mary during the final weeks of her life.<\/p>\n
Visitation will be at the Perrin Funeral Home in New Liskeard, Ontario, on Wednesday, February 25th, 2009, from 7:00 p.m. \u0096 9:00 p.m.\u00a0 A Celebration of Mary\u0092s life will be held on Thursday, February 26th, 2009, at Paroisse Notre-Dame-De-Bon-Secours in Belle Vallee, Ontario.<\/p>\n
