Dear Danielle and Family: After viewing the montage of photos, I am sure I speak for my brother Oblates that we can see the joie de vivre in your mother\'s long life, even until her final days. She would want you all to continue on with enthusiasm and good humor in your many activities and life projects, especially valuing your families and loved ones. The montage was a beautiful review of the gift of many years of one woman, her husband and family, even for an outsider, and a testimony that life is always a GIFT, from one moment to the next, even till the final moments. May that spirit give us all courage, joy, peace and gratitude to our Creator for the gift! May Yolande now enjoy the fullness of life that life and faith promise. Your Oblate brothers of the Canada-U.S. Region send our condolences and prayers and remembrance at Mass. (Frs. Ken, Marian, Jacek, Warren, Ken, Raymond, Lou, Luc and Bill--CROCUS)
