Ode To Auntie Ruby


Saturday morning a very special person to us passed away... and an even more special person to Wade. 'Nana' as he so fondly remembers her by. She was Wade's great aunt, who lived with the family and took care of the boys. She often told stories of Wade as a toddler climbing into her bed with his bottle and sleeping with her. Wade remembers baking cookies with her, riding around on her scooter and a whole bunch of other very fond memories ... I will fondly remember this special lady because she was such a huge part of who Wade is today. Her determination with many challenges in life made her a strong individual. We will miss our visits with her when returning home to Saskatoon.. Isaac and Jace will miss the rides on her wheelchair. Silent tears were shed on your behalf... To those who hear about it - you were just an old lady who died... but to our little family you were a very special Auntie.. We love You!!

Sorry for your loss.

Someday it will not matter how big my house is, how much money is in the bank, or where i have travelled.. only that I have been important in the life of a child...
