After 58 years of residing in Willow Park, a strong valued community of family and life long friends (Peggy and Michele), Mom moved into Bergen Gardens Assisted Living. Mom found a new community that she fondly called her Bergen Family.

Mom recently celebrated her 88th birthday with a party at Bergen Gardens surrounded by family and friends.

Mom was also blessed with very special cousins who were just like her sisters, Eleanor, Maryanne and Lynn.

Mom loved knitting and was known to share her Tweedle muffs with anyone needing one for support or comfort. Mom was an avid sports fan which came from her father Bill Ceretti who played for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

For my children:
When the day arrives that there are no more tomorrows for me, I want my children to know and never forget that they were, are and will be loved by me.
