Dear Rachel, Glenn, Billee- Anne and Daniel,
As you prepare to say your very sad good-byes to Sadie please know we are thinking of you. We know her loss is felt by many - including a large extended network of friends and family. As I reflect back on memories of the last time I visited with you in Cape Breton (many years ago) I picture a busy household with her at the centre of the action. It is a wonderful memory to have been welcomed into her home. I hope that in the days and weeks ahead that there are many more wonderful stories and memories shared with you all. Although there will be tears I hope these stories and remembrances bring you comfort. Thinking of you all with heartfelt sympathy and concern. Love Donna, Rob, Emily and Peter

Iris,What moves through you is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, you may not understand why she left this earth so soon, or why she left before you were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, you will begin to remember not just that she left, but that she lived. And that her life gave you memories too beautiful to forget. you are in my prayers always Your friend Jo-Ann
