Mom married dad in Alberta and spent the first half of her life on the farm working hand in hand with dad in the fields and raising four children with much love. She was a wonderful lady.

In 1957 they moved to Chilliwack. Mom has made her home at Eden Care Home since 2000.

Donations made to the Canadian Cancer Society in mom’s memory would be greatly appreciated, in lieu of flowers.

We, the children and grandchildren of Emma, thank everyone at Eden Care Home for their loving care on yet another member of their extended family.
