My Sympathy to Glenda’s family. She always stopped to chat when walking. Larry had been a great customer of my brother Mike the Barber ( who also extends his sympathy) and she always stopped at the shop on her walks to say hi. May she RIP

Love and condolences to Tammie,Brent,Robin & Keaton. Enjoyed many happy shared memories with your Mom. Glenda had a wicked sense of humour & the best dip recipe ever. At the spur of a moment, Glenda provided me & Connie overnight accommodation when we got a flat tire just outside Goderich. We chatted & laughed the evening away.

Laurie, Tammie and Chuck, my heart broke when I heard of your Mom’s illness. My sincere heartfelt condolences to the three of you.

You were great children to her and she loved all three of you dearly. 💔💐🕯
