HAPPY NEW YEARS TO ALL
 
                                LOVE FROM PATRICIA AND ALL FAMILY

   
    Greetings to all friends and  to our wonderful family.

            We are feeling bad about our non communication to most but it has been a time of rest and a whole lot of healing, Mom was always such a big part of our lives that its very hard to carry on as if life has not changed for us, it feels very empty, As more time passes life has become a little easier, and we are starting to pick up our lives as it was before Mom had her stroke.
            We have had in the works for sometime now a  little card made up special for her sisters and brother and family in Norway and family here  in Canada of Mom to send  to everyone for Christmas but it won't be ready by then so for the New Year. we hope to get them to all.
            We are all getting ready for the holidays and getting into the Christmas  season
 my family will be with me this year which will be lovely, Norma is having all her family with her and Elsie with her family so we will all have a wonderful time.

   We all hope you will have a wonderful holiday season and a wonderful Christmas Day with your loved ones.
 This will be the first year without Mom with us but she will be in all our hearts and thoughts.
    Sending love to all from all of us here in Salmon Arm.

       { Love Patricia and family}

    
      Today which would have been Mom's 93 birthday we all gathered  together family and Mom's friends to honour her memory, it was a wonderful time with so many memories everyone had  of this very wonderful  lady, we had food and more food laughs and some tears,  yet she is not gone she lives in each one of us.  a part of her will  be part of us forever, which will be passed on down the line, as she gave so much of herself to each and everyone of us.
Love
      Patricia
