Some of us knew Candy for many years, some for very few, but we all had the privilege to be part of this wonderful woman’s life. She was a devoted and thoughtful mother, grandmother, aunt and sister, very open minded and awesome friend who always had excellent words of advice. Thanks all of you for lighting up her days, for making her smile but most importantly for bringing happiness into her life. Candy would forever live in our hearts.
Thank you so much for your prayers and your remarkable support on such difficult times.
Chris, Jon, Allan & Ingrid

We knew this wonderful woman for over 30 years for her loving kindness, generosity & a lust for life. We have so many fond memories of her, plus she was my mentor in many ways. We will truly miss her.
