    I’ve just learned of Dorothy’s passing. My mother, Wilma Jean (James) Wark of Killarney, MB was a cousin of your mother’s. We had many visits with both of your parents over the years and I always remember how warm and gracious your mother was. It was one of my favorite places to visit.

    Please accept my deepest condolences. My mother has just passed as well and I would like to think that they are reunited in heaven once again.

    Regards,
    Karen Woloschuk

    Dear Murray and Family,

    I am so deeply sorry to hear about the passing of Mrs. Taylor. I only found out today, and was so sad to hear the news. I drove by her house in Hensall today and I thought I must drop in sometime. For some reason , I felt the need to visit Donna at the cemetery, as I do every year , and was very sorry to learn about your Mom. She was always so kind to me and she will be missed! I am thinking of you !
