Lynn and Family, so very sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. I didn’t know her but she must have been really special. She had you for a daughter, Lynn. My sincere condolences.

Lynn, so sorry to hear about the passing of your Mother. I recall our class visit to her Special Needs School and the compassion she had for the children. Sending love, strength and peace to you and your Family.

Lynn, Lori, Kate, Emma and your whole extended families,
I’m so sorry to learn of Gran’s passing. I only knew her in childhood, but have many laughter-filled memories of her. Giggles with Gran in the kitchen, swimming in her pool and other such hijinx. She was lovely and wonderful and gave great hugs. I hope that recalling your lifetime of memories with her softens some of the pain and helps to keep her with you.
Loving condolences from Vancouver Island.

To Kate, Emma, Lori and family

Deepest Condolences, your mom and (Gran) touched the lives and hearts of so many including our family and for that we will be truly thankful. She was a very special lady.
Her love will always surround you all.

Wow, I can’t believe she is gone! I was so Blessed to have had her in my life for my whole life. She helped me so much with the loss of my Dad, her brother. I love spending time with her and uncle John in Florida every year and spent so much time with them as a girl growing up. I’m so glad I got to spend her last day with her and although I will miss her dearly I am so glad she is at peace now and with her Abby! Rest in peace Aunty Gwen
My condolences to uncle John and cousins Lori Lynn and Chris!

Dear Howards,

Sincere condolences to each of the Howard family as your hearts heal and find peace .

Thinking of you all and sharing your grief. Deepest condolences.

John, the girls, and extended family,
Please accept my sincerest condolences on your loss. In the years that I have known Gwen Chalmers Howard she has always been true to her roots, remained in touch with the present, and was intuitive regarding the future. She was a multi-faceted woman who introduced me in the 1960’s to the affirmative action movement, even before it became a societal revolution that she predicted.
She was an innovator and administrator who guided her Lighthouse School with determination, street smarts (creatively acquiring funding), and love. She was a steward to her family and by extension to the Bridge Club with her journalistic talents which kept the communication channels open.
Space restricts me herein, but I must express my appreciation for Gwen’s willingness to help others – like myself – when a seemingly critical situation arose.
What I always will remember is the manner in which Gwen treated others. She believed that every person deserved to be treated with decency and dignity, and she practiced this principle with a warm humility. A life well lived; a life lived well.
Thank you, Gwen.

I have and will always keep on my phone a list that says, “Gwen Howard’s book recommendations.”

It goes without saying she was a friend to young and old and all that lay in between.

Gwen covered the entire Moore family with love and affection…..and the best things in life: book recommendations, well cooked food, hilarious and witty conversation, laughter, Chipit-cake, a love of Canada, cottage memories from Kincardine to Mactier, open arms when we “just happen to be popping by in Florida” and deep friendship. She will be missed, but know somehow my Dad is filling the pipes somewhere out there, to remind us all of her “Amazing Grace.”

Lynn and family sorry to hear of Gwen’s passing. What a wonderful full life. A lovely woman whose light still shines through her children and grandchildren Thinking of you all.

To John and family,
Our condolences on the passing of dear Gwen. One of the nicest people we have ever met. She lived a wonderful life and will be forever remembered by all who knew her..

Dear Lori, Lynn, John and family: I appreciated Gwen’s gentle exterior that belied a strong interior that could accomplish anything she set her mind upon. She was kind, clever, very social and authentically cared. It was always clear that her family came first, but she also treated Silver Creek like her family. What an impact she made on the ‘magical place’—or rather she imbedded the magic that continues today. I thank her for the role model she was to me—that I didn’t recognize til I spent some years trying to fill her shoes at the Creek.
Rest in peace, dear Gwen.
