In one of their last conversations, Mélanie Godin texted her younger cousin Mindy Godin, asking what her eldest son would like for Christmas.
Mindy responded with a photo of monster trucks.
But if that wasn't possible, she sent another photo of Dinotrux, a part-dinosaur, part-vehicle toy. Ty, the red one, was her two boys' favourite.
That was Mindy.
"She was an amazing person and she cared for her kids," Mélanie said Tuesday, trying to hold back tears. "She would have done anything for them."
