Thinking of all of you today & extending our deepest sympathy. So many wonderful memories of your Mom. When your Mom & Dad moved to the Mount Forest area we would often stop in for a visit with all of our kids on our way to Meaford. Your Mom always insisted on putting out a meal for us & did it so effortlessly. I also have many childhood memories from the 4th line living across the "field" from all of you! Love to all...Aunt Jan & Uncle Dave

Although I don't know you, I have heard about you from your proud mother, grandmother, great grandma . I taught with Evelyn in Minto Clifford many many years ago. We each went our own way raising our families and teaching in different areas. A few years ago, we reconnected and had many conversations. Evelyn's quiet, fun manner touched many children...and adults. Sorry for your loss. Sharon
