Thank you to Dr. O'Brien for the care you gave Ma for so many years and to all the doctors assisting with Ma's care in recent months. To the nurses and the entire staff of 3rd Floor South at the Glace Bay General Hospital who became such an important part of Ma's daily life),we will be forever grateful for the gentleness, respect and compassion you gave our mother. To Marilyn Coady-Macdonald (Cape Breton Regional Hospital) you always went the “extra mile” to ensure mom’s comfort and contentment, we thank you.
A special thanks to the members of the EHS Staff for treating our wonderful mother with kindness and respect. You became her friend. It was comforting for us to hear you talk and laugh with Ma in the back of the ambulance and we also thank you for visiting her in the hospital during her stay. Your thoughtfulness was noticed and greatly appreciated.

Thanks to the 7 Pallbearers (grandsons and son in–laws), St. Joseph’s Church choir, organist, readers and gift bearers, your participation was sincerely appreciated.
