We are saddened by the loss of our beautiful Mom, but take comfort that she has now found peace. Her early years in war-torn Europe were filled with fear and desperation. She and Dad were so grateful for the opportunity to escape, and became loyal and proud Canadians. They both engaged in community building, operated a successful business, and raised six children. We appreciate all the hard work and sacrifice, and hope we made you proud.
Love always, Cora & Roger Golden
