My Marg is gone, sadly and tragically having endured the ravages of cancer and the ever diminishing hope of return to her normal, healthy and active self. Dashed were her hopes of enjoying the rest of our lives together in our “Dream Home” so recently completed and acquired. Dashed were her hopes for long walks together on the Valley trails. Dashed were her hopes of walking the mud flats of the Bay of Fundy… her gum boots left unchristened.
Gone, too —and thankfully so— is the pain the wracked her body into a frailty that forced her to reluctantly succumb to the abandonment of her self care to others, a matter of no small concession for such a determined woman.
Marg will not be defined by the disease that took her, but instead by her zeal and determination to not let anything disrupt her plans, her fastidious spirit and steadfast deployment of a well compiled list, her meticulous attention to detail and her frightfully unshakable memory.
Though small in stature, she was big of heart with a generosity eclipsed only by her smile. When she smiled at me my heart melted and I fell in love with her all over again. That she loved me was never in doubt; her tenderness when she held me and the gentleness of her caresses banished any thought to the contrary. I will sorely miss her at my side, my copilot on all those road trips and the thousands of kilometres we’ve walked together on this earth. I will dearly miss the sound of her breathing beside me on those nights I struggle to sleep…there will now be many to come.
Rest pain free My Love! My Treasure
