    Davis Family,
    We are very sorry to hear of your loss and hope the great memories of your mother and grandmother get you through this difficult time. I have very special memories of Val, as we use to call her “Skippy’s Grandma”. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

    Jacki:

    Sorry to hear about your Mother.
    Looking at these great pictures certainly brought back pleasant memories of both your parents and looking at your Dad – remembering him being Santa Claus and your others always being cheery.

    So sorry to hear of Aunt Valmai’s passing. She was the original “Iron Lady”, always likable, tough, and hard working. I have fond memories of her at the farm where she had a wry sense of humor and the most wonderful fish tank. Take care Jacki, Rick and Vicki.

    Having lived as neighbours with your family for many years, I am greatly saddened by your loss. I have many fond memories of times I spent at the family farm and have often thought of your mother when I go visit my parents who still live down the road from the farm. My hearts go out to you all.

    Val, will be sadly missed. The moment I met her we instantly hit it off. I looked so forward to seeing her every week. We would take her to get her hair done, or simply pay her a visit and stay with her awhile. Our Thursday afternoons, will never be the same. Val, also has a spot in a special young girl’s heart, which will remain forever. It is also on her behalf, that I send this message of condolance. Our thoughts are with you.
