Condolences for the family of “Mary McIeod”
My sincere sympathy to the McLeod family at this time.
Margaret & Dick, sorry to hear about your loss, what a wonderful life she has had. There will be plenty of memories to share and hold dear. Thinking of all of you at this time.
Dear Family:
My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this sad time.
Sincere sympathy in the loss of your mother, Peg. You and your whole family are in our thoughts and prayers.
To Mary&&single&&s family – Please accept my sympathy on the passing of your mother. She was a very special lady who I met at the Huron Tract guild when I moved to Mitchell many years ago. Our Christmas meetings at her place were a wonderful experience, and I learned to braid a rug at a workshop Mary did for guild members. She was always interested in projects we were doing, and as long as she was able never missed an open house or a show and sale. It was obvious that she had a love of nature, and what a welcome those daffodils provided each spring! I feel blessed to have known her.

What a wonderful life. I have many happy memories of being at your home as a child Then as I got older Mary was a wealth of information from gardening,to knitting. She was a great lady always ahead of her time an inspiration to myself and others. Thinking of you all.

Hi
I sent this off to the rest of the family as knew Mary was known to many. Received this back so thought I would send on.
Sorry for your loss.
Anne
Thanks Anne — I have very good memories of Mary back in the 70s and 80s. Tom and I used to visit her — and then subsequently Dad and I because they remained great friends. They shared a birthday as you may have noticed and I think they used to “pals” back in earlier days — whatever that meant!
She was a terrific person — who used to knit socks for Peter Gzowski (among other accomplishments) and was frequently mentioned on his show. That made her a celebrity in my mind.
There can’t have been many Seaforth girls going to U of T — and in science, no less — in the ‘30s.

My sincere condolences to Mary&&single&&s family during this difficult time,She will be missed by all at the Manor.She was a quiet yet very knowledgeable woman when you got her talking about a subject dear to her heart. She also had a great sense of humor when you would least expect it that head would raise and out of that wide smirky smile would come a funny comment from the lady you didn&&single&&t think was listening!!I will miss that smile.Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.One Breathe.One Tear,One Step at a time.Rose
