My deepest sympathy in the loss of your mother Tracy. She fought a long battle with her illness; may she rest in peace.

Condolence from Carol Seglins on November 11th, 2018 11:47 am

Dear Pat and family
My sincere sympathy to you all on the passing of your loving Wife, Mother and Grandmother.
Rene was always so loving and caring. In her days at the Vera Davis we often shared a cheery message together when I was up visiting. In these last months when her health was more of a struggle, she was always so appreciative of your many family visits.
My thoughts are with you all.

Condolence from Doug Nicholson on November 11th, 2018 2:25 pm

Such a vibrant, happy, family woman Rene was. Helpful with Rotary functions in every way. Loved to dance, one of my last memories of her at a wedding dance, full of love and energy before this dreadful illness robbed her of that life. How loyal and faithful Pat and the family were to her during these years. Never to be forgotten, rest in peace, dear Rene.

Condolences to you, Pat and your families

Tracy and Family,
I met your mom for the first time at the Caledon Seniors Centre. What a true lady she was and was always accompanied by her caring and loving husband. There were many times that I would guide her thru her difficulties of being confused. No matter what, she carried on with a beautiful smile. May sweet memories stay alive thru this difficult time.
With Deepest Sympathy,
Ruth and Ed Broeders

Condolence from Fionna Ferguson on November 12th, 2018 10:38 am

Dear Pat , Tracy and your whole family.
We are so sorry to hear about Rene’s passing. She was such a fun and beautiful lady before her illness robbed her of her personality.
We have so many happy memories. Times on the Rotary chuck wagon, Canada Day at the Albion Hills, in your kitchen making up people’s faces for the Santa Claus parade, St Andrews balls in Toronto, days on our boat, Claire’s wedding in Banff, Wines of the world in Palgrave, Rotary’s Inner Wheel and pub nights, and many more…

We hope that you all have many, many happy memories of Rene and find comfort in them and that wherever she is now she has found a good cup of tea.

Graham and I are in the UK at present and will unfortunately not be able to be with you on Thursday but we will be with you in spirit and thinking of you all.
Much love,
Fionna and Graham Ferguson.

Dear Pat, Tracey and all the family,
I was sorry to receive the news from Fiona today. My Deepest Sympathy to all the family. I will never forget the fond memories shared, when we all got together in our various homes. Especially, the day of our Cricket Match on our Land, with a break for tea, when “rain stopped play”!! Followed by a curry dinner, when we celebrated your 40th Wedding Anniversary that evening. The Opera Night and many more. Such fond memories. May you find strength in each other, as you look back on your happy times spent together with Rene. May she rest in peace.

Tracy, Rory and Family,

My sincerest condolences on the passing of your Mum. I just heard of her passing from a Client we have here in Bolton who attends the Day Program at Vera Davis. In our conversation, there was no shortage of ‘adjectives’ that described what a lovely person she was. Hope Dad is managing thru this loss. Thinking of you all !
Connie
