Sending our condolences . I have many great childhood memories of visits with Aunt Marion and my cousins. I also was fortunate to attend her 80th birthday celebration. She visited us in Thunder Bay when Joanne was attending school here. Her weekly calls to my Dad, her brother Ray was something they both cherished and looked forward to. Love Glen and Lucille Johnston

Sending hugs to each and everyone of you. Travelling to K.L. as children to see Aunt Marion & our cousins was always a big adventure for us. It would be an all day event.

So many happy memories spent in Dane with Mrs Lingenfelter. Many a Sunday night I would get home sick and she would pack me up and drive me to town. Lots of shenanigans but the best memories. Visits to Saul’s to say hello. (Jo and I hoping she would give us some change for a treat - and she always did). Sending much love to all the family. She was a wonderful soul and will be missed.
Hugs from “Jude Jude!” ❤️
May my support warm your heart
