Mom was born in Jerseyville, Ontario, and moved to Saskatchewan, as a teenager where she met our father "Mr. Mike".
They lived there for a time, and returned to Toronto in 1935.
Mom's motto was "It's better to give than receive" and that's why she insisted we bring gifts for the Food Bank instead of presents for her on her birthdays.
A special thanks to Dr. Petrov, her family doctor, and the staff at the Community Nursing Home, Pickering for their compassionate care in the last 6 months of her life.
