One Tribute
Dear Sperling Children & Families- I was very saddened to learn of you mother’s passing. She was such a gentle and caring woman. She always had kind words to say about everyone. I grew up in Wilkie, Sk. not far from where she was born in Unity. If I remember correctly my Aunt Kay Schell who lived in Unity was your mother’s Godmother. I’m your mother’s age 77. Know I feel for all of you and know you will give her a good send off, and carry on remembering her specialness “The comfort of having a mother may be taken away – but not that of having had one” -Seneca Deepest sympathy and love to you all Carol,Len Leeuw & Family
