Dear Bob and Family, Mary-Alice, was a wonderful person, remembering the time you both welcomed us into your home when our grandson Nate was born at St. Joe's, and the good times we had at John and Marg's croquet tournaments. You have our sincere sympathy.
Bob, Jeff and Erin and family. Thinking of you all. Also remembering so many fun times. God Bless.
Our thoughts are with you through this difficult time Bob.
Our sincere condolences to the bereaved family, Bob, Jeff and family, Erin and family. We have known the family for many years as we were former neighbours, and I (Evelyn) RN at peopleCare Oakcrossing had the pleasure of taking care of Mary Alice. May you rest in peace now Mary Alice. God bless.
Our sincere sympathy to you Bob and the family. It has been a difficult journey the last few years but I remember the happy times and in particular Mary Alice's love of Leonard Cohen. That music played for many hours and we either began to appreciate him to or distance ourselves from her room. Her dancing eyes extended to her love of movement and she was always ready for fun. May she rest in peace.
Bob, so very sad to hear of Mary Alice's passing. Her KGH classmates were always so impressed by and grateful for how you lovingly cared for her and kept us up to date on her progress . I am wondering if she and Leonard have met up yet.

With sadness Bob and also a sense of closure for you. You have been a rock through it all. Loved meeting Mary Alice when you came to Walkerton. May peace surround you at Christmastime
It is with great sadness that we've learned of Mary Alice's death but we know she is now at peace. We have many great memories of our time spent together in Mexico. Our sincere condolences to Bob and all the family.
Our deepest condolences Bob and family. We know that you had a very deep love for your wonderful and beautiful wife, Mary-Alice. I can still see her dancing outside Barlovento's by herself and with others---it was an awe-inspiring sight which will be etched forever in my memory. I also remember fondly our short get-togethers at church each Sunday morning after mass and how you doted on her with such obvious love that it will always be an inspiration to us. May God bless and keep her forever in his warm and loving embrace. He has called her home and I'm sure she has already started a dance club in Heaven!

Dear Bob and Family', I wish to express my sincere sympathy to all of you on the passing of Mary Alice. I got to know Mary Alice at the yoga classes at the Windermere Goodlife.

Dear Bob, we are so sorry to hear of Mary-Alice's passing. She was a wonderful person and we have many fond memories of our times in Mexico, also at your home and here in St. Catharines. She is probably playing the piano and enjoying the much-deserved peace and happiness of heaven. Sincerely, Earl and Mary
Mary-Alice was a an easy person to be with. We laughed a great deal shared a few drinks and had a few trips together. Her smile and love of life will keep her alive in our hearts and in the warm memories we cherish. RIP
Our hearts are breaking for you and your children, Bob. At the same time we are glad for the end of her suffering. We will always cherish the memories of her indomitable spirit and your deep devotion to her. Dance with angels, Mary-Alice.
Our deepest sympathy to you Bob and the family. Mary Alice was a kind hearted sole who touched many lives. May all the good memories you have help you through this difficult time.
Mary Alice will be greatly missed. Her life's work in service to others is highly commendable. She was a wonderful parent and grandparent and an outstanding partner for Bob. As her former sister-in-law I knew her as a gracious and caring friend. I will always remember the trip she and Bob made all the way to see me at to my home in Prescott, Arizona. It is with sadness and relief that we must say goodbye - we know she is now at peace. May her family find comfort in the their many memories.
Bob to you and your family our deepest sympathies. May she rest in peace now.
