Heather was such a thoughtful and caring friend. She never forgot a birthday or anniversary! Over the years, a card always arrived in the mail along with a cheerful note! Heather was so great at keeping in touch! I have many wonderful memories of our days together in London Ontario. Today I'm remembering her smile and endearing giggle. It was simply the best. She was truly a special person and friend to me. I'm so sorry for your loss Rob, Rhonda and Joanna and family. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Love, Bev 💞

After the tears have dried and the goodbyes have been said, all we have to hold onto are the happy memories that we’ve shared with our loved ones who have passed, this is what keeps them alive in our hearts and in our minds, and they will continue to live on, through us. Our deepest condolences Rob to you, and your entire family. You've probably spent so much time taking such loving care of Heather that you haven't even thought of yourself...take some time to gather yourself and work towards putting yourself in the lead. Knowing Heather this is what she would want for you. See you on March 25th.

My heartfelt sympathies go out to you Rob, and to Joanna and Rhonda and your family. Heather and I had some good chats while teaching together over the years.She was brave and strong fighting her disease with grace. I will remember her as a friendly, outgoing, and full of life friend and will miss her.

Dear Rob, Rhonda, Joanna and all of Dear Heather’s immediate family,

My heart is broken in a million pieces. She fought so hard again to beat cancer and she was always smiling. I will cherish so many memories of my Dear first niece. She was my very special flower girl.

From the day she was born in Stratford, moving later to Hillcrest Drive in London. With the visits there and more to spend time with her at Nana and Bompa’s and all in Windsor. When she met and married Rob, she added more memories for me to cherish as well.

I plan to be at the Holiday Inn on March 25th to give each of you big hugs in person. In the meantime, as you mourn your greatest loss, try to think of Spring and watch for those little roses and Heather. Water them and pick some to take inside as memories of Dear Heather each year.

Much love and many prayers,
Auntie Kaye.

To Rob, Rhonda, Joanna and Marion

Heather was indeed a very special woman, and a wonderful mom.I remember Heather best as a special friend from highschool, and my first roommate. Very loyal to those she loved and cared about, and always wonderful about keeping in touch. Life took us in different directions once we both married, but she is one that will always been remembered as special for me, and how she cared. You just dont see that everyday. Wish I could be there ( from Newfoundland) for the celebration of life, as would have much to say about fun times and special experiences with Heather. May you always keep her close in your memories, as she will be with you every time you think of her. A big hug to you all

I will dearly miss you Heather. We shared so many wonderful times with our girls at gymnastics and cheerleading. As we both worked for the school board we would see each other at school and catch up with family stories. Our lives had so much in common which brought us so close. Although the angels took you too soon I know your smile will be shinning in heaven. Love you and miss you my friend.
