Dear Lindsay. So sorry to hear about your mom. So many great memories in Brantford many years ago. My deepest condolences to you and all your family
Dear Les, Karen, family and friends, I'm so sorry that I never got to meet Lila. She sounded like the kind of mother, mother-in-law and grandmother that everyone would have loved to have. My condolences to all of you, Pauline Bélanger (Edmonton).
Dear Lindsay, Leslie, and Scott Very sorry to hear of your mom's passing. There are great memories of our years as neighbours in West Brant. Your mom was a very kind, nice lady, and a lot of fun. Mom spoke often of her and the good times they had. My sympathies to you all.
What a sweet, wonderful woman Aunt Lila was! We always looked forward to a note from her at Christmas so we could catch up on her family's goings on. Our sincere condolences. Glenn Ford and family.
Leslie, Karen and Stewart family, We are thinking of you all and hope that your memories of your Mother will sustain you during this time. Karen and Don (Edmonton)

Lila was a special person and I'll miss her a lot. Her gentle sense of humour and her insightfulness were just part of why she was one of my favourite people. My condolences to the Stewart family; I know that she will be missed by all of you.
