A role model to the very end. I'll miss you and love you always Nana ❤️
My deepest condolences to the Hetherington family. Some of my fondness memories involved music. Years ago when I was in elementary school, she led our junior choir at St. Luke’s. I believe she was also involved in the of our operetta The Gypsy’s Reward. She loved music so much and imparted that on all of us. Service through song and making a joyful noise unto the Lord will be aspects of her character that will always stay with me. My heart goes out to the entire family.
What a wonderful life you Mom had David, but it is so very hard to lose your spouse and two of your children.
I didn’t know she was a singer with the Mendelson choir
May your mother rest in peace
...sending my heartfelt condolences to Aunt Maurine's entire family, especially to cousins Donald and David, at this difficult time...yet it is also a time to celebrate Maurine's long and fulfilling life. I have many fond memories of family "get togethers", especially Christmases hosted by Aunt Maurine and Uncle Wordie on the Kingsway in Toronto, and spending some memorable times during family reunions in both Vancouver and Toronto. My parents (Ewart and Joan) and Maurine and Wordie had much in common, including love of church and music, so piano playing and robust sing alongs were the norm during our visits. I will also be eternally grateful for the love, support and friendship that Maurine and Wordie showed to my parents, especially during my parents' later years and in particular when my father's health had begun to decline and up until his passing in 1986. RIP, Aunt Maurine.
