The World is Diminished

We lost one of our finest this past week, my grandmother Lillian. She survived the Depression, the Second World War, and losing her youngest child at forty just a few years back. Born and raised in the rugged Ottawa Valley near Renfrew, ON, followed by over sixty-five years of rural existence in Prince Edward County, she was easily the wisest person I have ever known.

Rest in Peace, Grandma.

Lillian Cole (Byers)
1925 - 2010

A lifetime to remember
