My deepest condolences for your loss. I have been friends with her grandson since high school. She will always have a special place in my heart. May she rest in peace.
So sorry for the loss of Loretta. Over the years at family gatherings I would find myself sitting with Loretta on a couch talking. I loved our conversations. It was lovely to see her in Niagara Falls in November. My son Sean took a picture of Loretta and I talking on the couch. I was able to see a few times in December and I hope I was able to give her some comfort. Rest in Peace.
More than a decade ago (2007), I met Loretta in Richmond Hill. Over the course of those years, our relationship quickly grew from friendship to family. My children and I even called her grandma. Her kindness, empathy, and warm heart changed my life forever. My daughters and I are forever grateful to her. We were deeply saddened to hear about her passing. We are sending our deepest condolences and love to your family.
It is with deep sadness that I write this message. I’ll never forget how Loretta helped my family (Claudine) out during a very difficult time. She is an individual from my childhood that I will never forget, and that I was grateful to learn from. My heart is with you in this time of sorrow.
Dear Allan, I am so truly sorry for your loss.
My deepest condolences.
Sadly i did not know aunty Loretta but my sincerest condolences to the family. May she rest in eternal peace
