We got to know Vi via her many visits to Waves' restaurant with her loving sister, Elva. Vi was a delightful lady who always had a smile and time for a chat. Seeing them both there together was always a treat, something we will miss. We send our condolences to Elva and to Vi's family.

To Donna and family
Was saddened to hear of the loss of your mother. She was truly someone I admired greatly and so grateful to have known her. Recall seeing both your parents at the ball field when I was growing up and they were so caring and supportive. In recent years it was truly a pleasure to run into her and have some great chats. The world truly was a better place because she was in it. May she be resting peacefully. Sincerely, David Nauss

What a wonderful lady Vi was, in the true sense of the word. She was devoted not just to her family but to her community. When she was out and about it was always a pleasure to stop and have a chat with Vi -at church, when shopping or at the Kinsmen field. She enjoyed participating in Donny's many musical adventures and liked to remember those times with those who witnessed some of them.Vi has left many happy memories for her family and those who knew her.

Louise and I were both saddened to learn of your mom’s passing so just a quick note to let you know we are thinking about all of you. Vi was a wonderful lady and will be missed by everyone who ever had the pleasure of being in her company - The first memory that came to Louise’s mind was the smile Vi would always greet her with, regardless of where she ran into her. She was always sincerely interested in how you were and what you were doing. In high school, when I showed up at the house, I knew I was welcome and we would always have a chat, even if that meant talking over Donnie’s trumpet practice! We know you have many great memories and we hope sharing these will help you through what is always a very difficult time.
Jim and Louise

The world has lost a kind and generous lady. The Gow family has lost a mother, mother in law, a grandmother and a great grandmother. What a lovely tribute to Vi. She certainly lived an incredible life and learned so much along her life's journey. She leaves behind caring and loving children, grandchildren and she was lucky enough to see great-grandchildren. How fortunate for them to enjoy time with her. Whenever I saw Vi she reminded me of what a gentle soul she was. She always had a smile and something caring to say. Her family and friends were blessed to have met her. She is with the angels and Donald. At peace.
