Dear Finlay family,
My deepest sympathy on the death of your dear sweet mom. Our Wildfield subdivision has lost another dear soul. I will always remember her bright smile every time we met along with her beautiful singing voice at Sunday mass. She was very lovely warm soul and we will miss her. May she rest in peace.

Mary was a special person, and she will be missed truly by a lot of people.
I am so happy I went to see her back in December, and she was just as I remembered her, happy, and such a wonderful person.
Truly, Truly sorry about your lost.

Dear Mr. Finlay and family,
I have enjoyed looking at a lot of your old and treasured family photos posted on Facebook by Frances. Mrs. Finlay was one of that very special group of beloved, respected and trusted neighbours from Wildfield. We were fortunate to have her as one of our wise elders for all this time. Her mega watt smile is one thing in particular I will remember. Proud to say she was a neighbour across s the back field. May she rest in peace. Sincerest condolences on behalf of all the Giblins. LOVE, Martina.
