I am offering my condolences on the loss of this grand lady, my Aunt Claire. I will always remember her for the calm, steady and warm welcome she offered every time we landed at her door! Always gracious and asking about what was happening with me … offering a comforting hand for the disappointments and ready to chuckle at the silly things!

She married into a great family , and I am sure you will all miss her. Kindess regards to all at this time Evelyn Willimson

Dear Cathy, Connie, Elaine, Mary, John, Margie, & family ,

In a few weeks it will be 50 years since I first met your Mom. I can still picture her in her rubber boots in the milking parlour. I marveled then and I marvel now how she was able to do so much work around the farm and raise seven great kids and always seem to stay so pleasant and cheerful.

I extend to you all, my thoughts , prayers and sympathy.

Condolence from Diane Clark (Phillips) on December 29th, 2008 1:00 PM

To the Eckert Family, especially Margie

My thoughts and deepest sympathy are with all of you on the passing of this amazing mother, grandmother, great-grandmother. Mrs. Eckert was always so friendly, kind and welcoming when I visited the Eckert farm. She possessed so many fine qualities and we can all be inspired by her strong faith and strength to deal with life&&single&&s challenges. What a hard working woman she was, playing a major role in the operation of a successful farm and raising a wonderful large family. It was always such fun to visit the Eckert family on the farm. When I was young I remember the sleep overs and the ghost stories, playing in the hay, shovelling manure for my first time, roaming around excitedly in the barn, petting all kinds of animals, learning to ride horses and as we grew up there was continued fun on the hayrides and partying with good friends. Such great memories at the Eckert homestead!

I wish all of you peace, comfort from family and friends and cherished memories of Claire. She certainly has earned her ticket to heaven. Blessings to All

Love Diane (Phillips) Clark
