I have some fond memories of my customers at Scotiabank and Alida was one of them….rest in peace…

To The Gamble Family; sorry for your loss, Alida was a good neighbor and friend of our family. I really enjoyed my times with her over the years, from when she would stop in to see my folks, and the times I worked at the house and we’d talk over coffee or lunch. Thinking of you all, sincere condolences, Dalt

Alida was a loving caring lady. We had wonderful fellowship with her through the years. A very dear faithful friend to mom. ( Hilda Jackson). We will miss her smile and care.

Dear Elsie, Glen, Earl, Dalyce and Marlene,
I cherish memories of times we enjoyed with your Mom over the years, and the photo you chose, takes me back to those days. Ken and I and our children loved her. She and my mom in law Hilda, were great friends! Thinking of you with sympathy and care,

We sure have good memories of the Gamble home, Ben Jr as a good friend, the 3 of us ( Ed) going places especially on Friday evenings. Our condolences to the family, and out thoughts with you as Mom is laid to rest beside Dad.

My thoughts are with you at this time

To the Gamble family,

Our deepest sympathy to you in the passing of your mom. It was always pleasant to chat with her whenever we would see her. She lived a long life well!

Our sincere condolences to the Gamble family on the passing of your Mother, grandmother and great grandmother. We got to know Mrs. Gamble over the years when she visited her son Ben, his wife Adele and their children in Alberta. Mrs. Gamble loved sharing stories of her family in the “home country” and the workings of the farm in Exeter. She joined us for many Christmas dinners and summer bar-b-ques, always bringing some little gift for the host and hostess. She has lived a long and good life and will be remembered for the experiences and the stories she shared, especially those from WW11 and the farm. May she Rest in Peace and may you find comfort in the memories you shared.

I really enjoyed getting to meet and visit with Alida. She was a lovely lady and I know you will miss her as will I. Please accept my condolences.

To the Gamble Family:
Thinking of you as you mourn the loss of your mother, grandmother, great grandmother Alida. She was the kindest sweetest lady from the time she was our neighbour on Hern Line and even after we moved to Exeter she always spotted me and was ready for a chat. She sure lived her 100 years to her full potential. May her special memories now become treasures you will carry in your hearts forever. Deepest Sympathy.

To Alida’s Family

My condolences to you all as you mourn the loss of your Mom & Grandma. Alida was always so friendly and loved to have a visit whenever we saw each other to catch up on what each of our families were up to. Your family were neighbors to us since I was very young. Your mom was so good to us after mom died – she would drop off some of her Wonderful Baked goods for us once in a while.

May fond memories help you through this most difficult time. She made it to 100, and made the most of each of those years.

Our heartfelt condolences to the entire Gamble family at this sad time. We will always remember Mrs. Gamble for her easy smile, grace and her genuine affection for us. As Ben’s mum, she was an important part of our family here in Alberta and we always looked forward to her visits.
May she rest in peace,
Janet, Stephen & Andrew Rodrigues

Dalyce, Glen, Earl, Elsie, Adele and Marlene my deepest condolences in the loss of your Mom. She was an amazing lady. I will miss her. Sending love and prayers to you and your family.

My deepest sympathy to the Gamble Family.She was such a lovely lady.

We would like to express our condolences to the Gamble family. Sorry for your loss.

Always can picture Mom and Alida talking about the war days and how they were teenagers and how they survived. We went on day trips together, went to school together with the kids and went to meeting with Alida, she appreciated Isabel Beatty and Margot Titus so much in those beginning days. Homemade bread and lots of garden produce, all part of her daily cooking. We will miss you Alida!

To the Gamble Family

My sincerest condolences. Alida will be missed by everyone here at Kingsway Lodge. I will miss our chats about her family and her homeland. I’ll miss our sing alongs too. May she rest in peace.

Robin Awcock CCG, Kingsway Lodge

To the Gamble family,

My deepest condolences on the passing of Mrs. Gamble. As Ben and Adele’s niece in Calgary I always loved when she would come to Calgary to visit. Her smile was so warm and the hugs were so loving and big! And although the Rodrigues family is a large one she always had a way of making each of us feel special. Thank you Mrs. Gamble.

Auntie Adele, Michael, Fiona, Matthew, Liz, Julian, Thanh, Bennett and Fawkes, sending love and support during this difficult period I’m here if you need anything.

May she Rest in Peace
