PULLEN, WALTER “WALLY” – It’s been 2 years. They say there is a reason They say that time will heal, But neither time nor reason Will change the way I feel. No one knows the heartache, That lies behind my smile, No one knows how many times I have broken down and cried. I wish that I could tell you, So there won’t be any doubt, You are so wonderful to think of But so hard to be without. From your loving wife, Janet

DEFORGE – In loving memory of our little Angel, Jamie Elizabeth Deforge, who was a Granddaughter, daughter, and a sister, who passed away 12 years ago, May 10, 2002. This day will be a celebration Of the short time you were here. You will always be remembered With great love and many tears. But to only feel pain and sorrow Would not be fair to you. Your life meant so much more to us, More than words could ever say. You were here so briefly, I know you knew All the ways you’ve touched Our world and our hearts And everyone who knew you Since the day God called you home. Now our child, and sister, you’re an Angel With your heavenly Father above, We see not only what we’ve lost But our capacity of love. There will always be a big void In our lives and a hole in our Hearts that will never heal. Our souls will grieve forever. Will we forget or stop loving you? No! Not now… not ever. As this day is upon us, Oh, how our hearts still hurt. But, even as we mourn your death, We will always celebrate your birth. It was, and always will be, the happiest days of our lives. We will always love you and remember you in our hearts forever. You are never far away. Love Grandma (Clarice) Duncan, Mom and Dad, Douglas, Jenna and, Jamie, And Michelle and Chris

HAMILTON, David Douglas, July 14, 1947 - May 8, 2004 He is gone but not forgotten, And, as dawns another year: In our lonely hours of thinking, Thoughts of him are always near. Days of sadness will come o’er us, Many think the wound is healed, But they little know the sorrow, That lies in the heart concealed. Love Always Debbie and Blake
SMITH - In loving memory of John a wonderful son, brother, husband and father who passed away May 12, 2007.

OBITUARY
HENDRY Winifred “Win” The family of Win Hendry (Baigent: nee Holmes), predeceased by her husbands Alexander (Sandy) Hendry and Harry Baigent, sadly announce her passing at the Jubilee Hospital in Victoria, BC, on December 21, 2013 in her 94th year. In 1954 she started her 31 year nursing career at the Rideau Regional Centre, retiring from the Smiths Falls Hospital in 1985, where she created many lasting friendships. After retirement, she moved to Victoria in 1997 and enjoyed her new home. Loved walking by the sea shore, greatly admired all the early show of flowers and delighted in the balmy weather of the west coast. She was a keen participant at her local community centre, enjoying her darts and crib games and maintaining an active social life. Over the years life presented her with many challenges, but she never lost her love of life and appreciation of all the positive things around her. Her favourite line everyday was “I always count my blessings”, and she always took the best of what each day offered her. She is survived by her sons Tony, Bernie, and Richard Baigent and daughter Leanne Kapostins (Hendry), 10 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at the St. Francis de Sales Church in Smiths Falls at 10:00 a.m. Saturday June 21, 2014. Cremation has taken place. Interment to follow in the St. Francis Cemetery.
