First and foremost mum was a Christian, a loyal wife, a loving mother, a true grandmother and a wonderful great grandmother. Mum did everything to the very best of her ability and she enjoyed it. Always having a smile ready for everyone, she loved her family and hard work. Mum went to the barn morning and night for 27 years. When they retired from the farm, she went to work part time at rainbow printing for a few years. She loved to work with her hands like creative circle, cross-stitch, hard anger, knitting, quilting, sewing and even making dolls and teddy bears. She even arranged flowers and worked with wood. Mum was a witness right up to the end. Farewell Mum, until we meet again, Debbie and Judy.
She is resting at Sherwood’s Funeral Home (506-839-2156), 18 Scovil Road, Norton, NB, with visiting on Monday, December 16, 2013 from 2 to 5 and 6 to 8 pm.
