“Don’t weep at my grave,
For I am not there.
I’ve a date with a butterfly
To dance in the air.
I’ll be singing in the sunshine,
Wild and free,
Playing tag with the wind
While I’m waiting for thee.”
Sincere sympathy to all the family…especially my good friends Elmer and Margaret.
Nicole, Steve, Reagan and Dylan,
Brendan and I want you all to know you are loved in this time of grief, and always. The days ahead are difficult but your memories of Mom and Grandma will sustain you through the darkness of the valley. And when you get to the mountain top, you’ll feel the warmth of her love through the sunshine on your faces and know that she is still with you, residing in your hearts where she will be and has always been .

I met Maud 3 years ago at the cancer clinic . We just found out my dad stage 3 lung cancer . He was just starting his chemo . Being a little nervous about the whole experience and this was our first time in the chemo Center , we starting chatting because I love to talk to everyone . And the very special lady who smiled and said “ Hi “ was Maud . We instantly became friends . Maud was a blessing who came into my life that day . A beautiful soul and full of inspiration . Of course we became Facebook friends and always kept in touch . Maud was indeed and angel to me . I will miss our chats and even a ❤️ Sent my way on Facebook .
