So sorry Dave and Ruth for your loss. I have many fond memories of being at Aunt Belle's home with Eunice and Ruth. Eunice reminded me a lot of my own mother, Irene. With deepest sympathy Shirley (cousin)

So sorry to hear of the loss of your mother David, your mom was a wonderful person, I remember the youth going to your house and your mom making treats for all of us. She always had an encouraging word for people. Her love of playing the piano or organ blessed everyone who got to hearer. Our thoughts and our prayers are with you.

Dave, so sorry for your loss. You mom was a beautiful lady, inside and out, always had her contagious smile shining. Her gift of music was absolutely stunning as she mastered the piano and organ. I always looked forward to being in her S.S. class. She was such a creative teacher, and she really listened to and took interest in what each one of us thought and had to say. She really cared and it showed. A giver to the end. Awesome S. S. teacher Proverbs 31: She opens her mouth with wisdom, And on her tongue is the law of kindness. Awesome woman Proverbs 31: "Many daughters have done well, But you excel them all." 30 Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised. Psalm 116:15 Precious in the sight of the Lord Is the death of His saints

So sorry to hear about your Mom's passing, Dave. I have many fond memories of your Mom. She gave me piano lessons for several years and taught me in Sunday School when I was a child. An excellent pianist, she used her gift for God. I can still see her sitting at the organ at Faith Tabernacle! Eunice was also a big support to my husband's first wife Fran when she was undergoing treatment for cancer. Your Mom was a very genuine person and I can't think of a time when she wasn't smiling! Thinking of you at this difficult time.

David and Ruth, I am your Eunice's cousin from the US. I am Aunt Winnie and Uncle Kenneth's middle son. I am so sorry to hear of Eunice's passing. I attended Eunice and Alan's wedding and remember well her mother, Belle, and her father, Uncle Jim. My wife, Phyllis, and Eunice corresponded regularly at Christmas time until two or three years ago when we lost track of her. We will miss her pleasant demeanor and positive attitude toward life.

David and Ruth we are sorry to hear of Eunice's passing. She was a great friend for 60 or more years. She mentored us as young people and followed us and our ministry throughout the years whether we were in Canada United States, or Kenya. We have happy memories over many years. She took the time to visit us in Augusta Ga., and Mackenzie BC She and David attended our 50th wedding anniversary, 2008 in Prince George BC. We enjoyed visiting in her home whenever we were back in Ontario. We enjoyed the fellowship and meals. We will certainly miss her and her prayers, but know she is with the Lord whom she loved and served throughout her life.

~ LeRoy and Shirley Davis
