Dear Nanette, Jim, Drew and Families: My heartfelt condolences in the loss of your dear mom and grandma. I knew Jessie for many years and she was a very dear soul to me- full of fun, always had a good joke to tell and looked on the brightest side of life even amidst adversity. My heart goes out to Nanette- I know how deeply your mom loved you and how proud she was of you as of all her children. Oh! How loyal she was to family and how much she loved her "wains". She was an inspiration to me with her courage, wisdom, wit and humor. It was a joy and treat to be around her. When I first met her she came laden with gifts in her suitcase and gave me a lovely lace tablecloth made in Scotland. I remember walking with her to a restaurant for tea and 1/2 way she realized she had her slippers on but still wore them to the teahouse where we laughed ourselves silly about it. Such a great outlook on life and she will be so missed by all whose lives she touched. Rest in peace, lovely lady.
Grannie/Great Grannie. You will be very missed by everyone! Sorry that you didn't get to meet Hunter also. I always remember you telling me to straighten my back up when I'm sitting. You always made me laugh also. Dad and Arlene always and will have good stories about you to share. Love you always, Travis & Hunter
Grannie/Great Grannie: You will be missed dearly by all of us and will forever be in our hearts. Although baby Emily never got to meet you in person we will be sure to show her pictures of you and tell her stories of your visits with us. I especially remember the after dinner walks that my dad looked foward to ("another walk?!?"). You were always out front leading the way. We will also remember your sense of humour and your canny ability to beat everyone at cards. Love always, Melinda, Trevor and baby Emily.
Dear Nanette, Ryan and Jason: You have our deepest sympathies on the passing of your mother and grandmother. We are so sorry for your loss and want you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.
Nanette, and Family you are certainly in our thoughts and prayers, We know how much you cared for your Mom. Nanette, may Our Heavenly Fathers peace and grace encompasse you in your time of loss. GBY
Dear Jessie; I will so miss you my friend. I will miss you a the Kiwanis between ends at shuffle board, you would come out with you cue or what ever they are called, in you hand, you always had a smile on your face, and a hug for me. I will miss making "Bread Pudding" for a special lady, on her special day.See you on the other side...............Love you...................Gloria
Dear Drew, Jim, Nancy and Families: Please accept my deepest sympathy on the loss of your dear Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother. She was a very wonderful caring, considerate and loving person and I feel honoured to have known her. I remember the wonderful times that my late husband Fred and I had with her and the rest of the family. She was always a delight to be around with her funny stories and her beautiful Scottish lilt. I believe that Emily has arrived in our family in a very appropriate time. They say that for every door that closes, a window opens. Please carry your Mother's memories with you forever, she was a very special lady in all of our lives and will be missed by all of us who knew her. With my condolences, Lorna Jackson, CRANBROOK, B. C.

My condolences to the family. I only had the pleasure of meeting Jessie on a few occasions, but I was impressed by her lively nature and unfailing good humour. She reminded me of some of my old Scottish aunts. She will be sorely missed.

Mum...good memories of you will always be with us. We shared many wonderful road trip holidays in BIG MAC, where you would always start the day off by saying we're "Off on the road to adventure". And who could forget all those nightly card games! Mum....we loved you dearly and have you in our hearts always.
Jessie you will be missed very much.We had so much Fun at the Kawanis Centre. Also will miss our Visit to the Casino. All my Love Brenda
