It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Marilyn Aird (Crane) on Saturday, June 11, 2016. Beloved wife of Winston Aird. Loving mother of Glen (predeceased), Kathy Pyke (George), and Ken. Cherished grandmother of Carina (Dave), Valerie (Dan), Duane (Vanessa), Kris (Tiff), Megan (Steven), and great-grandmother of Jordan, Riley and Baby P. Born in Toronto, she was the daughter of the late Len and May Crane. Dear sister of Gary (Bev). Sadly missed by nieces and nephews. The family would like to thank all the staff at St. Joseph’s Continuing Care for all their excellent care and support. At Marilyn’s request there will be no visitation or service. Donations to St. Joseph’s Continuing Care Centre will be greatly appreciated.
Hi Mom,
Sorry for the late response at Christmas and New Years. Every time I came down I couldn’t bring myself to write anything. I miss you so much.
There is no one I could confide in, , miss your smile, your laughter, and I know that you’re watching from above and that gives me some comfort.
I hope you are reunited with the rest of the family.
Love and miss you terribly,
Kathy

Happy Valentines Day and Happy Anniversary.

Loving wife, mother, sister, grandmother & great grandmother. Friend to all who knew you.
We will miss your kind words, your laughter, your ability to make us all smile. When we felt down you had words of wisdom to reassure us that everything would be okay. You were an inspiration to all of us.
We admired your bravery right to the very end. We found the words you had written down
“Look down on me Jesus
Won’t you help me take a stand
I can’t take it any other way
My body’s aching and my time is at hand
I can’t make it through another day”
As you leave us, we know that you will be reunited with your parents, son and friends.
Heaven has truly been blessed with another angel and you will remain in our hearts forever.

Im so sorry to hear of Mrs. Aird passing she was a wonderful person that reminded me of my own mom. I’ve told her that before. I’m glad I met Mr. AIRD at the hospital while I was visiting my niece he had told me that she was in the hospital. I’m so glad that I went to visit her and will be thinking of you and your family at this deficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with your family Carole Lacasse
