Kathy and The Grant Family: My most sincere condolences to you on the loss of your dear mother, Betty. Her obituary says it all - beautiful! I remember her visiting Uncle John & Aunt Gertie's in Doctors Brook. She was always smiling and very gracious. May your memories be a source of comfort to you at this time. Her picture is stunning.. God rest her beautiful soul! Paula Macquarrie

Dear Family - I was so sorry to read about your mom's passing. Losing a mom is something we never get over. Your mom was always so kind and a wonderful neighbor. Mom and dad always looked forward to a Christmas fruit cake as your mom would bake it and bring it over to them - a gift of care and love. And then her biscuits and short bread cookies were the best. She would make a batch for my daughter Sarah as your mom knew how much she liked them - Sarah still mentions that. I have wonderful childhood memories with the Grant family. Yesterday I hung out a line of clothes and I smiled and thought about your mom as there would be a line of clothes put out throughout every season. She worked so hard. She loved her family dearly.

I can see Mrs. Grant now hanging out her cloths on the line, always had a sweet smile. Loosing a mom is so difficult they are the strength and truly the backbone of family and hold everything together. Helen Steiner said it best. A mothers love is something no one can explain, it is made with deep devotion and of sacrifice and pain. It is endless and unselfish and enduring come what may. For nothing can destroy it or take the love away. That was Mrs. Grants love for her family. You will be in my prayers.. Elaine Yeadon-Haines

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your dear mother/grandmother. I remember her from going to Emile’s and my son Travis’ sporting events in school. I could tell how proud she was with her cheering and smiling. I would also often see her out in her beautiful yard tending to her flowers. My thoughts and prayers are with you all as I know how much she meant to you all.

Will always remember when Aunt Elizabeth and Donna came to my fathers(Roddy) funeral, it was very kind of them both to travel to Ontario at a difficult time!!

Betty became my church friend many years ago. We usually sat in the back seat together and had some good chinwags (before Mass started, of course). She was full of life and what I remember so well was her saying "age is only a number." God rest her beautiful soul.
