Today, we stand to honor and celebrate a remarkable life—one filled with adventure, creativity, and boundless love. Our mother was a spirited woman, daring and fearless, who continually stepped beyond her comfort zone to ensure her family lived in a world that was nurturing and thrilling, even when outnumbered by her four energetic boys and loving husband. Our memories are rich with the vibrant tapestries of summer days and winter holidays spent in the wilds of Muskoka at “the Camp.” Mom embraced the rugged beauty of nature—barefoot and free, gathering wild blueberries with us or collecting wood for open fires and bonfires. She turned cooking over campfires into an art, embraced the speed of boats we loved, and joined in the laughter that echoed around our campfires, sharing the songs that stitched our family together. Her legendary hospitality knew no bounds; she opened her heart and home to everyone, ensuring that those who had lost their own parents found new ones in her and Dad.
