I have fond memories of Aunt Bertha, a sweet woman, always with a smile on her face. She was dedicated to her family by taking care of 2 households. My parents thought she was a saint.
Normand, André, Odette and Family. My sincere condolences for the passing of your mother. I have such fond memories of Matante Bertha and her kindness. I will really miss her but it brings comfort to know she will be with her husband and my mom in heaven❤
Nos sincères condoléances à la famille!xo
Sincere sympathy to tante Bertha’s children, Normand, Andre, and Odette, their families and to her extended family. I was very sad when I heard of ma tante’s passing, I have very fond memories of all the Saturday nights that I would babysit there as a young girl, I was only 10 years old when I started babysitting for 25 cents an hour, ma tante would always ask me to come early so that Andre, who was the baby at the time, could get use to me, of course that meant supper and since I also slept there it also meant breakfast. I have always had a great amount of love and respect for both of your parents. Over the years they always made me feel special any time that I saw them and I always looked forward to visiting with both of them and then with just your mom. A few years ago I was able to acquire a part of her spider plant, it has since multiplied and is looking great, and I will think of ma tante Bertha every time I look at it. She was a very special person to many. My love to you all. Maria
