Dear Vern, Garry and Janice, Lynn, Jennifer and Jordan, Geoff and Jaleesa, and grandchildren.
To us, Mona was always a wonderful lady with a beautifully warm smile, a generous heart, and sparkling eyes, always helpful and so positive. Our visits to the family farm were special occasions with genuine hospitality. She touched our hearts profoundly with her warmth, sincerity, open mindedness and humour. She will remain in our hearts forever. Take comfort in your special memories.

My deepest sympathy and heartfelt condolences to the Alderdice/ Calldwell families
I have such great memories of 70+ years ago – school, school bus, farm, milk truck, swimming hole
and community events, nothing really spectacular at the time but bright spots as we look back.

We would like to express our sincere condolences to the Alderdice family. Mona was a bright light in this world. I don’t think I ever saw her without a big smile on her face and a twinkle in her eye. My mom, Elva Forrest (McQueen, at the time), was her teacher for a time in elementary school. When she spoke of those days, Mona’s name and antics usually came up. They continued to be friends long into the future. Mona will be missed by many.

Bob and Sheryl Forrest and family
