I am so sorry to hear of Sarah's illness and passing. Though we had not seen each other in many years, we crossed paths at a memorable moment in our lives. She had not long moved to Toronto from Montreal and I had not long moved here from Saskatchewan. We found ourselves working together at the Financial Times in 1980. We had many good times together, but I remember most her confidence and enthusiasm for all things. She was somewhat of a mentor for the shy Prairie girl that I was then, and she taught me that anything was possible. She strove for excellence and did not want to settle for less. I know something of the long and difficult battle she must have fought, for my brother, a year or two older than Sarah, fought cancer for the past six years and died last November. And so I understand what a terrible loss this will be for all of Sarah's family and friends; there will be no replacing her. I am sorry she is no longer in this world with us, for she made it a better place. Let us all carry on in her spirit. My sincerest condolences. Frances

Dear Caitlin: You don't know me. Your mother was my client when I was a young lawyer at Torys. I did lots of work for her and Ingrid when they established Exegetics. She always spent loads of time explaining what Exegetics was all about and what the word meant! We stayed in touch while she wound down that business and when she worked at Noranda. I had sadly lost touch with her in the last couple of years and was shocked to see her picture and the obituary in the Star on the weekend. The picture was beautiful---showed the smile and the long blonde hair! While you don't know me, I heard lots about you over the years. Your mum was always so proud of you and glowed with joy when she talked about you and what you were doing. You were clearly the apple of her eye. The obituary described your Mum so well. She faced many challenges in her life, both in business and personally, and she was up to all those challenges. She was a remarkable person who always looked at things from a positive and lively perspective. She was full of personality and spirit. You will surely miss her a lot. I lost my own Mum 6 years ago and I can tell you that while she is not physically here, I can still hear what she would say about anything going on today. Her memory is every bit as clear now as 6 years ago. I am sure that the same will be true for you and your Mum. I am sorry that I cannot join you tomorrow as you remember your Mum. I really felt that I needed to write to you--I have been thinking of nothing else since I saw the paper on Saturday. Warm regards, Sharon

Sarah and I worked together at Noranda/Falconbridge for several years and she was a delight to work with. Always cheerful, always looking at the positive side of any difficult situation. Yet she wasn't naive and strode into problems with confidence that she could succeed. And, with that attitude, she did succeed. She had many friends in our workplace who I know will remember her as I do. She treated everyone with honour and respect and treated us all to her laughter and constant smiles. I won't forget her.

Dear Caitlin,Joan,Leslie and May, Please accept my sincere sympathy on your loss of Sarah. My memories of her friendship at school at home, and at Bark Lake are so vivid that when we would talk about old times it was as if they had happened the day before. She was an incredibly special person and her love of her parents,her sisters,and her devotion to you Caitlin was without boundaries. My heart goes out to you all at this sad time. Sincerely, Bev.

Joan - I am truly sorry to hear of the death of your sister. I know from Joanne that you and her daughter have been right at her side through the last difficult days and it has likely been exhausting and also gratifying to offer your love in those myriad ways. Words are never adequate, but please know that Ted and I are thinking of you. With love, Magda

Dear Caitlin,
I never had the honor of meeting your Mom personally, but she helped me for our office's IT needs in Cleveland for years from her tenure with Noranda over the phone and by e-mail.
I know you are so proud to be her daughter. And, I'm so sorry to hear that she passed on to leave you at her young age.
God bless you. She must have been born as a miracle to love and conquer so many motivations in her life.
Carry on and keep cherishing your impeccable memories.
Sincerely,
Lisa Dasher

Dear Caitlin and family, I was truly sad to hear the news. I worked with Sarah on several projects and learnt a great deal from her, not only professionally Sometimes when in Montreal we'd go out for supper after work and we always got around to talking about our daughters. She was so proud of you Caitlin. Always had a neat story about you or your activities together. She truly lived live with enthusiasm and she always seemed to have endless energy. I will also miss her quirky sense of humour. I was lucky to have know her. Sarah

Dear Joan, I truly hope you read this; it's the only way I could find to contact you and I wanted to express my sincere condolences. As you know, Sarah and I were friends when we were kids, having gone to school together for many years. I'll never forget the Christmas party just a few years ago at your house in Ottawa, that you invited me to saying ... "there'll be someone there I want you to see". And there was Sarah! We hadn't seen each other in almost 40 years, and she was exactly the same as I remembered her - absolutely radiant! That's when she was getting serious about golf and we talked about that a great deal, as well as old times and old friends. It was a fantastic evening that I will always cherish. Joan, my thoughts are with you; I know what it's like to lose a sibbling - certainly not easy, but love and fond memories live forever - you will find comfort in the love you shared with Sarah, and that's eternal. My deepest sympathy, bon courage, and please be well. Jacques Langlois

Dear Caitlin, Joan, Leslie and May.. I'm totally devastated. There aren't the words to express how badly I feel for you all. Say was the most extrordinary lady. We reconnected years ago when she would come out here with her computer business..She had such an alive personality that people just gravitated to her and wanted to be with her. She's going to be so terribly missed. She was far too young and far too special to be taken so soon. Love you all......JIll P
