Dear Ed, Sarah & Jamie, Darian, Isabelle, Aubrey, Amelia and Kerslake & Seldon Families . . .
It is with saddened hearts that we are sending our sincerest sympathy to all of you on the loss of your dear and caring Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Joy. She was a dedicated, kind, sincere, proud, hard-working, remarkable lady who will be missed dearly by all her loved ones. Saying goodbye is always heartbreaking especially when it is a lady so beautiful both inside and out and taken way to young. It is so difficult to understand why these things happen to such good people. May the loving memories you have of her live on – in your hearts forever and help you through the difficult days ahead. “Death leaves a heartache no one can heal; Love leaves a memory no one can steal.” You have so many family, friends, neighbours & community grieving along side you and supporting all of you with their thoughts & prayers.
I had the pleasure of working with Joy many years ago. I will forever remember Joy for her loving & friendly manner, her beautiful smile, and the friendly chit-chats we shared. I especially admired her for the LOVE she had for her family, friends & neighbours.
Joy is now resting peacefully in the arms of the angels & may her journey to the next life be as wonderful as she was on Earth. She will be your angel in spirit – watching over all of you . May God keep you in his loving arms as you grieve and celebrate Joy’s life.
Rest in Peace Joy. ❤️

A Silent Tear – Author Unknown
Just close your eyes and you will see
All the memories that you have of me
Just sit and relax and you will find
I’m really still there inside your mind
Don’t cry for me now I’m gone
For I am in the land of song
There is no pain, there is no fear
So dry away that silent tear
Don’t think of me in the dark and cold
For here I am, no longer with you
I’m in that place that’s filled with love
Known to you all, as “up above
God Bless your Families
