Je suis désolée de la perte de votre précieuse mère.
J’offre mes plus sincères sympathies à toute la famille, amis et ceux qui l’ont
aimée.
Elle était très gentille et gracieuse lors de mes visites.

Please accept our condolences on the passing of Dell.
I (Marie-Odile) have found memories of my visits with Dell in the early years of our time as neighbours. When our son Eric was an infant, she invited me to come visit, while in the winter months we waited for our cabin to heat up. I remember her telling stories of her life as a “city girl” who had moved to the country for love. She recounted how life was then: often, while holding our son on her knee, she shared how much she enjoyed being a mother, as each of her sons was born. Even if that meant having to wash diapers by hand! Dell is the one who showed me where “the sandslides” were, and invited us to use them - something which gave us and our children enormous pleasure over the years! Dell will forever be remembered by our family as a lovely person who we were lucky to have as a neighbour.
Steve, Mary Jean and family
Our deepest sympathies to you and your family
