    I will cherish the memories of all us together the most, especially the many Christmas times in Hensall at her home. As I continue to reminisce about her, I pray in my hearts you all do as well with the happier times and the many photos & notes you have come across to share. She was a hard worker and always told it like it was, but that was her and I’ll never forget her. Time will heal but memories are golden.
