From Erin Beckett
Dear Sandra and Susan,
While clearing up Dad’s things (He is in a memory care unit in Sudbury.), I came across a letter written March 21, 2005 from your mother. Included were several lovely photos of your entire family including some with my father.
Searching online led me, sadly, to both your father’s and mother’s obituaries. Reading through them brought back wonderful childhood memories of being at your home on Hillcrest Ave. The names of your aunts and uncles sounded familiar, because you all spoke of them. IpAunt Lenore was mentioned a lot, so she must have been a favourite. By the way, I didn’t realize your Mom was from North Bay where my sister, Elaine, has lived for thirty years.
Your mother and father were so sweet and always made me feel welcome in your home.
I remember the McDonalds down the street used to fill Mom and Dad in on the news from your family.
The last time I saw you both was at Susan’s wedding. (I’m still embarrassed that I was stunned enough to wear a white outfit. Mom wasn’t happy when she found out.)
Anyway, I hope this email reaches you, as I wanted to pass on my very late condolences.
I hope you are all well out in Victoria.
Take care,
Erin (nee Beckett) Fullerton
Ottawa, Ontario
Sandy, I’m so sorry to read of your mom’s passing. My sincere sympathies to you and Susan. My mom is in a home now near Ottawa, with Alzheimer’s. Are you still in Oakville or out west? Best wishes.
Susan and Sandra, We send our heartfelt condolences to you and all the family on the passing of your dear mom. She and your dad were a devoted couple who were easy to make friends with and love. We have missed both of them at St. Paul’s; your dad so full of mischief and fun and your mom so sincerely devoted to her family, friends and church. I loved listening to the stories they would tell about their lives in the places they lived and they could always see the funny side to daily occurrences. We are blessed to have known both of them. Take care of yourselves in the days and weeks to come, as I know they would want you to.
