Jim, Jane, Bob, Dave and Bill ... much love coming your way. Your mom, our 'Aunt Dolly,' had such a warmth and a giggle, that when we were with her, I remember there always being good conversation, peppered with much laughter. She emanated goodness, her own inner strength, and a particular, very endearing gentleness. As cousins, your home was always a 'must stop' as we trekked to Southern Ontario. Memories of large family gatherings, with people flowing from the kitchen, to the garage, to the back yard, and to the treasured 'downstairs' ... with games, stories, and Oswald antics. During all of this, your mom just flowed with such ease, and made us feel so very welcome. We will celebrate your mom in a special way, here in the Okanagan ... With love, Mary Jo Schnepf and Spencer Lapointe
