Dear Madge, Bev, Jane, Jennifer, Lynne, and Evelyn,

Lila will always be remembered as the lady with the warm smile and friendly

personality. Her vivid memories of her youth and other recollections were

always a delight to hear. Having lived almost a century rewarded Lila with

a fine collection of anecdotes and decades of changes. We looked forward

to visiting Lila while in the Gaspe most summers. Her only daughter, Madge,

and son-in-law, Bev, enjoyed being her caring and attentive "children".

Sincere sympathy from our family,

Gyles and Marion (McNair) Harrison
