I only just now came upon this (web) site (now being 2021-Aug).... If I had only known....

Maureen / Danny.......

You mom and dad were my saviours in life.... They were the parent(s) I felt I never had........

I can't even begin to say how I feel about them, and how their passing has affected me to this very day........

Fortunately, I did have the chance to express this to you Irene, sometime in 2003 or 2004 when I returned to Calgary for a visit from the Middle East,..... You don't know it but I always felt you were my mother (perhaps you do know it now)...... I can't even begin to express how deep my feelings are for you... any words are just so insufficient.......

You were, and are loved, more than you could ever, ever, EVER.. possibly know... I could never even begin to thank you for what you meant to me in my life.

Please, I wish you may both rest deeply in great peace......

For the rest of my life, you will be with me......

She was a great grandmother and I loved her with my all heart and so did my dad, may she rest in peace.

Maureen, I was looking for you on line when I found this notice of your Mom, Mrs. D’s passing.

I am so sorry for your loss, for your families loss. She was a wonderful woman who loved her family. In the big picture none of us are here for very long, time goes by so quickly. Your Mom and Dad were always good to me when we were kids and I was not a good friend to you, I let you down. I regret that to this day and I apologize, I wish I knew then what I know now, it only took me 40 years to tell you.

Mum there are no words I can say which would describe how much I love you . I remain and always will be your Danny Boy.

My journey is not over in this world . I have little John and Duy

and Oanh to help get thru life a bit longer . When my work is done

I will be happy to join you and Dad. I feel your soul and heart are rejoicing now in the company of so many relatives and friends and of course Dad. Bye for now and see you soon

Danny Boy

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this very sad time.

My dear friend Maureen and family,

Was heartbroken to hear the devastating news about your Mom. I will always remember her as a lovely, classy and strong lady. Having spent many hours in your home I’ve always considered Mrs. D to be my second mom – I am so fortunate to have many many childhood memories – from barbies to sleep overs, dance parties, our hangout in your basement as teenagers, day trips to the beaches – our L.A. vacation, I could go on … boy Maureen we really had a great childhood life and I owe a huge thank you to you and the legend Mrs. D.

Hugs to everyone – I will be thinking of you all on Friday

Helen (zub-zub)

Sincere sympathy – Irene was a cherished friend –

Dear sweet Mom I will truly miss you. You will always remain close to my heart. xoxo
