Guest Book

Stuart Anderson - Moose Jaw, SK: Lil was a regular at the Cosmo Senior Citizens Centre for the Jam session.
Although unable to dance she thoroughly enjoyed listening to the music and watching the dancers. Afterwards having lunch at the Centre waiting for her driver.

Della Ferguson - Moose Jaw, SK: Lil was such a gift!  She had such a wonderfully positive attitude toward life.  I marvelled at her outlook...even as her sight failed...her spirit never did!  I will ever remember her at the tennis courts and her ability to play against the young people and place that ball anywhere she chose to.  She has inspired many of us and I for one am forever grateful for the gift that she has been.  I will miss seeing her at Extendicare! Bless you Lil!

Susan Rader - Moose Jaw, SK: I have never seen Lil without a friendly smile!  I was one of the "young people" Della spoke of - a twenty-something year old, agile, athletic woman greatly challenged in a game of badminton or tennis by Lil, already past her middle age years!  Lil was a great supporter of humanistic values, and remembered the names of those she acquainted - all were important in Lil's eyes.  We will miss you Lil, but know you are lovingly cradled in your Father's arms as you have returned home.

Marily Snell - Moose Jaw, SK: What a great lady! We spent many hours together on the board of the Southwest Daycare Center when she was the Director. She was committed to running the best center she could.  She was so wonderful to all the children and our kids just loved her. She was a caring and thoughtful woman who had a smile that lit up a room. We all were so blessed to know her. 

Ann & Clayton Sjoberg - Moose Jaw, SK: Lil was a wonderful caring person. We will always remember her on the tennis court as an opponent, a partner and a friend who loved the game. We will miss her.

Darla and Lloyd Spicer - Moose Jaw, SK: Lil was such a joy to know, always had that lovely smile and such a positive attitude.  I had a such a nice visit with her at church just a few Sundays ago.  I am very glad to have been able to know Lil.  We are away, so were unable to attend her service.  Darla  and Lloyd Spicer
