Jolene McGillivary was more then just a mother to me. She was my friend. Mom was so easy to talk to I could tell her anything. When she was able to walk she loved to shop. I guess that's where I get it from. I would pick her up on Sat mornings we would have the day planned out. And she would always make sure we went to lunch or dinner. I love you mom. You will be in my heart forever.

Hi Mom, I'm sure you know by now Rodger has left us to come be with you. We still do not know how he died. Hopefully he did not suffer he was found alone. I miss you every day when I heard the news Rodger passed away the first person  I thought of calling  was you. But I could not.  I love and miss you mom.
