She will be sadly missed but lovingly treasured in the hearts of her two daughters: Karen Jagoe (Byron) of Edmonton, Alta. And Charlene Smith of Bathurst.

Her grandson, Ryan Jagoe.

She is also survived by her special niece, Evelyn Godin, many other nieces, nephews and cousins throughout Canada and Australia. 

Her spirit will be carried in their hearts.
