My sincere condolences on your loss. I pray that memories of happier times will see you through your time of grief!
"God gave us memory so we might enjoy roses in winter."
I am a respected genealogy researcher, and would like to connect your Sterling family to my own if possible. My brother-in-law was Elgar Sterling (1923-2011), son of Gordon and Hazel Sterling of Tilston. Please contact me at an appropriate time if you are willing to share/ exchange details.
Thank you.. And please excuse this intrusion into your time of grief.

So sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. She was such a wonderful lady. She always made you feel good when you talked to her. I remember having her cinnamon buns when I would come home with Ruth after school. John says she made the best apple pie!!! Thinking of you hugs John and Diane

I only had the privilege of being in Jeans company a couple of times but they were very uplifting . I had the honour of golfing with her a few years ago and she was just an amazing lady. Funny sweet and above all a fantastic golfer for someone of her age. Her attitude and outlook on life was a rare gift. She had a life well lived. Enjoy your memories.
