I always had a good time with you. You were always so nice to us by letting us watch t.v., letting me have a Freezie, many Band-aids, and "swimming" in your Jacuzzi when we had our sleepovers. I always thought your cane was cool!I miss you alot. Love Emily

Grandma you always enjoyed having us over, and we loved our visits at your place. But now it is like a part of your home is empty, and that part of the house was the happiness of you. I will always remember coming to your house, you smiling to see us, and giving you a hug and kiss. It has been a pleasure spending time with you, but you will always be with us in our hearts. We love you no matter where you are. Love, Sheylyn

Gramma, you mean so much to me. I can't believe you are gone but I always loved you and I always will. We had some good times together. You always made sure I was happy and gave you a kiss. Who will have the chocolate puddings stocked up or give me a Loonie for a slurpy? It didn't matter if you were in the hospital, had bruises, or was sick, I still loved to visit you. I LOVE YOU GRAMMA!!! Love Jenna

You were truly our mama bear: sometimes gruff, never afraid to gently correct us if we got out of line, and so protective of your family and the people you loved.
Mom, where do I even begin to share how much I loved you and will miss you? Growing up on the farm you made sure we knew that work didn't kill anyone and the faster you got the job done the more time you had to spend on fun!
I remember the garden patches, picking miles of rows of peas (at least that's what it seemed like!), and it seemed like you always picked the coldest day in the fall to dig the potatoes and carrots. That huge raspberry patch - Barry and I used to pray for a hail storm so we would have a reprieve from picking raspberries. The chickens, pigs and turkeys that we raised and bringing the piglets or calves into the house in the spring when dad was worried they would freeze. So many memories!
Food was the way you comforted us, so it's no wonder you were such an amazing cook! If we were sick, there was homemade soup, if we were sad, then you would cook something to cheer us up, if we were happy, then we would celebrate with something wonderful! That was the way you were raised and it's been handed down to all of your daughters. It didn't matter how old your girls were though, you would always correct us if we weren't cooking up to your standards! "Are you stirring that pot? Don't forget that needs to be whipped in a glass bowl! Did you remember cool the beaters off before you whip that?" And now you have granddaughters who love to cook as well! Dad will be looked after mom, between his girls and his "dolls" we will make sure he's well fed...
You were always there for me and my kids mom and for that I'm truly thankful. You love following the sports and even though you could never figure out what an "offside" or "2 line pass" was, you were always there to support the boys! I will never forget the road trips we made following the boys when they played provincials, and how proud you were of Dana when she was in syncronized swimming. You took your camper to Loon Lake so your grandchildren could enjoy camping and fishing. That is something they will never forget.
You were there for me during my divorce and you and dad helped me so much when I didn't know where the next meal would come from. You supported my decision to go to school and were so proud when I graduated with honors from the business college. I will always remember my trips to Hawaii with you. That was a very special gift!
These past few years had been so hard for you mom, your health deteriorated so much, but you always tried to smile and put on a brave face. I'm so glad you got to see your great grandchildren and that Floyd and I had a chance to take you on your last boat trip. Dana loved spending that day with you and talks about how happy you were to take us to the fish!
I have so many memories and have only touched on a few! Now it's my turn to be a wonderful mom and grandmother. I will do my best mom to try to meet your standards... I know it is a hard task, especially when you always told me I was "just like my father" when you were mad at me! I love you mom...and will miss your gentle hands and soft touch... Sherbear

Mom we had our ups and downs over the years, but you were always so proud of your families accomplishments. I always thought the world of you and how talented you were with your cooking and your wit. You were always focused on family get-togethers and what type of super meal we could be stuffed with!I will remember your stubbornness and parenting skills which I will pass down to my kids whether they want it or not! :) At the time, I disagreed with your opinions, but now I know your wisdom was correct. I am a better person from your interventions, laughter, crying times, firmness,loving hugs and love of my hubby and kids. I will not forget the memories we have shared. Love you deeply, Teralyn

I will always remember when your mom was camping at Birch Lake and she ran a concession out of her trailer. She told me that she loved to listen to Don Williams...to this day when I hear a Don Williams song I think of her.

Dear Geneva, You were a special friend. You always welcomed us into your home with a huge smile each and every time we walked through the door. Where you never needed to be invited,dress up and you could be YOURSELF. Geneva was always concerned about everything you did. She was always there to call upon during good times and bad. Geneva understood everything you did and dwould always tell you the truth about yourself. AND you knew where you stood with her. Geneva was always genuinely happy for you when things went well and would always cheer you up when things weren't going well. She was an amazing cook! If you ever had any cooking questions she always knew the answer and was proud to share them. We shared the same virtue that our children meant the world to us. I will never forget the joy she felt for me when I joined the Grandma Club! as Geneva shared the same wonderful feelings about her grandchildren. They were always the proud topic of the day! If Geneva saw our vehicle slip by, there was usually a message waiting on the phone asking if you were coming back for coffee! That is funny as now we can't get through that 4-way stop withour our little grandson saying that Granny GENEBA needs us to stop at her house!!! We had so many great times together. Whether it was having our poached eggs on toast at Sunny's every Sunday or spending time at Loon Lake,I treasure every one of those times. Geneva took Sherry & I to Hawaii in 2001 and we took atleast 24hrs to get there with multiple stops but we never complained as we were making memories and like Geneva said" We were TOGETHER and that was all that mattered!!" Geneva also had a sense of humor! A funny thing happened in Hawaii and I'm sure she had told everyone! We had a fold out couch and when I sat down, it folded up with me in it and instead of helping me out, Geneva & Sherry laghed hysterically and told me to hold that pose until they could get their cameras!! One other memory was how much Geneva LOVED picking berries. John had found the perfect spot way north of Waseca somewhere, so off we went. Everything was great until we thought we heard a bear and we were all surprised how darn fast we could RUN back to the expedition!!! But I think we had already filled our quota!! When Charles was in high school, her worked for John and stayed with them. Geneva love to tell stories about those times and he said Geneva kept him in line but he sure enjoyed her cooking! Well I guess I have shared a few of our stories. So with that i will say that I have been blessed with sach a special person in my life. Someone whose friendship and companionship I've grown to value and treasure. Thankyou for being such a rare individual. Thankyou for our very special friendship! A part of my heart has gone with you Geneva and I will miss you more each day but we are truly thankful to have had you and your family in our lives. Laura & Charles & family

Grandma, Something I will always remember growing up as a kid and being out at the farm and it didn't matter how hot or cold it was, you would chase us outside to play. I wish you were still here to chase me outside! Love you grandma! Scooter!

Dear Grandma, Accepting that you have left us is one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. You never judged me. You were always the person I called with I had something exciting to tell, or I needed honest advice, or when I was bored or lonely. I know you loved me, and all of us with all your heart. I am so very thankful my girls and Corey got to know you, and love you, just as I loved you so. I am so grateful I got to spend as much of my life with you as I did. Your soft, warm hands were always so soothing. Your hugs were comforting. Your words were always honest. Your smile was always genuine. And I know very well how excited and happy you always were to see me and my little family. Every time we go to the lake I will think of you. When I make buns, I will think of you, but they will never be so tasty as yours were. Now, with the limited use of my hand, I will ALWAYS think you of -- Remembering and laughing every time I think of your shaking hand with the coffee. One time when you were trying to drink a cup of freshly poured coffee, your hand was shaking so bad, the coffee was spilling onto the table, until you slammed the cup onto the table and yelled "God damned hand!", and then you quickly lit a smoke. It was your hands fault after all, right? Silly grandma, you make me laugh. And all you did was smile and nod your head at me. Thank you for always telling me how proud you are of me. Thank you for reminding me that being a parent is hard work, but extremely rewarding. Thank you for sharing your past experiences with parenting and being a wife. Thank you for loving the man that I love and accepting him as our family. Thank you for reminding me of all the good things in life when I felt I couldn't go on. I will stay strong for you, Grandma. It hurts so much to see you go. Now that you are free of all pain and suffering, I will be patient and wait to see you again one day. I will always think of you, and often tell Dilynn and Autumn of their Great Grandma, and that she loved them with all her heart. I am going to try so hard to just do what I want, and not worry about what other people think. Do what makes me happy. I will never forget your advice. I am so proud you know how much I love you. And Grandma, Corey and I will get married. Like you said, "you're never going to get married unless you just plan it, and do it!" I know that you won't be able to make it in person, but I know that you will be watching over me. You will always watch over me. Love always and forever, Your first-born granddaughter, Lana
