Dear Catherine, Brenda, Arlette, Doncella and family:
I was sad to hear of Thelma's passing.
At the age of 18, I left New Brunswick to move to Brandon meeting my cousin Thelma, Aunt Katie and family members for the very first time as you know.
I stayed with Aunt Katie for a short time and then Jim and Thelma took me into their/your home and treated me like a daughter. All of you were good to me which I will never forget and will be forever grateful.
When living with your parents, Thelma taught me how to make Yorkshire pudding amongst other things. I will cherish the memories of camping trips, holidays such as Christmas and the love she gave me.
After moving to Ontario I didn't see Thelma or Jim unless we visited Brandon.
I was thrilled when she came to Ontario approximately 22 years ago with her friend . I thoroughly enjoyed our visit and conversations.
Thelma loved her family and the Lord God.
I'm sure there would have been a revival when she arrived in heaven.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during your time of sorrow.
Rest in peace Thelma until we meet again in heaven.
Love
Carmel and Dennis
