I first met Heather almost thirty years ago, when we went line dancing. Always enjoyed her hugs, her infectious laugh but most of all her friendship. Our monthly dinners are not going to be the same without her, but I know she will always be with us, no matter what. You are and will be missed,my friend. Until we meet again..❤️

Heather was my aunt and we always had a special bond. She had such a big heart, so much love to give.
I miss her laughter, kindness and most of all her presence.
Will cherish our wonderful times together and give love and support to my two beautiful cousins.
Love and miss you

Fond Memories: You as an A & W roller skating waitress constantly refilling my mug with root beer. Later as we each got married, spending many Sat nights playing cards and listening to rock & roll. Then I watched you assume a roll of a devoted mother and care giver to your sons for decades. I had the pleasure of meeting and sharing time with most of your biological siblings after you had spent years in search of them. Too many fond memories to mention. I will miss your hugs and smiling face even when you weren't feeling great.
I love you and peace be with you.
"Cuz", Mark

An amazing neighbour and friend. We will miss you and your infectious personality. Don't worry, Parker will watch over Duffy and Angel. I'm going to play the Beatles nice and loud for you tonight.
Thank you for everything.

Love,

Our ships crossed paths many times over the years and you were always the gracious host, friend. A giving mother, loved her dogs and a well travelled foodie. May you soar with the eagles and enjoy the sunrises and sunsets.

Heather was my big sister, but in reality we were so much more than siblings, she was my friend, my confidant, my mother figure, she and I have so many precious memories together, I will always look upon them fondly and with a big smile on my face! I know she is smiling as well for she will have met her real mom for the first time in heaven! Your Sister Anne-Marie xoxo
