Dear Marlene, Bill, Fred, Mark and families, John and I are thinking of all of you at the loss of Tante Gertrude. I have many childhood memories of time spent together with your family in Windsor. We also very fondly remember all the meals your Mum included us in, picking us up, and dropping us back home while we were in London at UWO and later while still without a car working at St. Joseph's and John at the Victoria. She was never shy about "telling it from her perspective" and a lot of fun to be around. She will be missed! Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you, Sandy and John
