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.

After being stabbed in the neck at her Grand Falls home on Monday morning, Mindy Godin ran to a nearby convenience store to get help.
She didn t survive.
Tom Godin confirmed that his sister, who was in her 30s, was the victim in what police called a suspicious death at Depanneur Leo, the store next door to her home.
His sister s two sons were at home when the attack happened and watched the entire thing, said Godin.
