Marie travelled with her Joan and Eunice and her dear mother, Rose in 1979 to New Glasgow, Nova Scotia to visit with our parents and meet all of Rose’s sister Alma Arsenault Pound’s grandchildren. We remember the visit fondly and found her to be much as described in her obituary. She was due to come back East just before her passing and so we regrettably never got to see her again but our memories of her are wonderful and we hope to see her again in heaven some day. We have no doubt that is where she presently resides.

Condolences to her children, sisters Joan and Eunice and all her other family members and friends.

Sorry to know of your loving mum’s passing…my sincere condolence to you and family…. God Bless her soul….

Hugh, in fact I’ve been looking for Hugh Edward Barroll who used to work in Miri, Sarawak, East Malaysia in the mid 1970s. I hope I got the right person, if so, hope to hear from you. Tell me about your family and kids. My email addy: godiva781@yahoo.com

Regards and God Bless all

Jane – I just was told today by Margaret Archibald of the death of your Mother in late July. I am so sorry and know about the shock of sudden death. However, it has it’s compensations in that she didn’t suffer a great deal.

Please accept my most sincere sympathy and I will look forward to having a visit with you on your return to Vancouver,

Much love

Anne Pearson

You have my sincere condolences.

I’m so sorry to hear of your moms passing as I just recently saw and talked to her briefly. Still bubbly with a smile as always. I recall her warmth and welcoming heart regardless of the situation. Having lost my loving parents not long ago life is different, realizing more so just how precious they were. Pulling together as family and sharing the wonderful memories will ease the sadness. My deepest condolences to all of you…Jack

Mary,

Sorry to hear about the death of your mother. I read her obituary and and it really captured what an accomplished and vibrant person she had been. It is not an easy time for you, but I trust you are getting all the love and support you need from family and friends.

Take Care,

Steve Shannon

Sonnet 116

Love is not love

Which alters when it alteration finds,

Or bends with the remover to remove:

O no! it is an ever-fixéd mark

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;

It is the star to every wandering bark,

Whose Worth’s unknown, although his height be taken.

Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks

Within his bending sickle’s compass come;

Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,

But bears it out even to the edge of doom:

If this be error and upon me proved,

I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

– William Shakespeare

To say that I am grateful that I have known, loved and experienced the love of your beautiful Mother is an understatement. She has represented for myself and for so many an ‘ever fixed mark’ of immovable and unconditional love.

I count it an incredible blessing to have shared in the beauty that was her life.

My heart is sad as I leave the country today, knowing that I cannot attend the services in her memory. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

May Aunt Marie rest in peace knowing that she has left a true legacy of grace, love and overflowing generosity behind her.

With Love,

Jennifer

I am very sorry to hear of your Mothers passing. Take care of yourself.

I recall a black and white picture taken in late 1951 or early 1952, I believe on 12th Ave. in Calgary. My Mother, Arlene, my Aunts Marie and Gwen were sitting on a sofa with their 3 first infants on their laps, myself, Jane and Robert.

It saddens me to think that Aunt Marie was the last of these women and their husbands and the last of that generations of Barrolls. My cousins, sister and I have lost our familes that had provided love, nourishment and the lessons in life that made us who we are.

We have been fortunate that they were in our lives. My children have benefited from their family association with Aunt Marie and Uncle Ted.

Rest in Peace.

Tom

Our love and prayers are with you. Marie and Ed were an important part of the Arnett family life. We will miss Marie.

Love the Arnett’s

Hello to all and my prayers are with you!

I am in BC at the moment and will not be home until the 10th.

I wish I could be with you at this moment to ease your loss.

The Kings, all of us out here in BC;

Shannon & family, Shelley all of Michael’s children & grand children are thinking of you at this time. I will be seeing them all tomorrow and we will share a prayer.

Your mom will be missed by many and fond memories of Prospect Avenue will reside in our hearts.

Love

Kate
