Randy Brooks Dear Michael and Family. Not many words can be said to express my sorrow for your recent loss. When my father passed on I reminded myself that mom would once again have a dancing partner with her in the heavens. #nextdance Lots of love.

Lucie Mattar My sincere and deepest condolences to Sabina and Michael, John, Tracey, Sacha and Ethan, and Michael for the loss of your mother, mother-in-law and grandmother. As I fondly remember meeting Lillian and Jan in Tsawwassen many years ago, and instantly feeling the Davies-Ossowski welcome, I will cherish the memories of gatherings and happy occasions shared with your beautiful family.
Lillian’s life was enriched and blessed by your love, caring, devotion and compassion. She was surrounded by you, and held in your Grace for her departure.
May all your most precious and beautiful memories of Lillian continue to bring you comfort and healing.
With Love, Light and Blessings.
