Faye's family would like to say a huge heartfelt thank you to the wonderful people at Ty Watson House who took such good care of mom while she was there. You are truly the most kind caring, compassionate people and words cannot express how grateful we are to each and every one of you. 

There will be no service at moms request. Please, no flowers (mom didn't really like flowers) instead we ask that you make a donation to Ty Watson House in Port Alberni.

Heads up Ron! Here she comes!
