Mom moved from Sidney to be near her family in Sooke where she enjoyed the company of the growing generations. Special thanks to Mom’s good friend Doris Milburn, treasured friends from Beacon Home Support, friendly members of the Sooke community and all who cared for her. Mom had a generous and caring spirit and will be greatly missed. She will be laid to rest in Shady Creek Cemetery, joining her husband and sons. A family tea will follow.
