After settling in BC she enjoyed taking many trips back to Saskatchewan to visit her family. Some of moms favourite pastimes were singing, crocheting, drawing, dancing and having her nails painted. She loved her regular Wednesday dinners with family bringing so much joy to the table and FaceTime visits with us all singing her favourite song “ You are my Sunshine” that will be locked in our heart forever. She also loved Bingo scratch tickets and her dream was to win big and take all her kids to Mexico. Mom was a very kind, caring person that never complained about anything. She taught us all so many life lessons that were of more value than anything that could be bought and this gift will be treasured forever????
