Gary Merrill Meuse
January 27, 1952 - August 8, 2010
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Gary Meuse, who lost his valiant battle with cancer on August 8, 2010, at Kitimat General Hospital.
Gary was born and raised in Prince Rupert, BC and was the eldest of six children.
He leaves behind his wife of 18 years, Wendy; a step-daughter Grace MacNeil; son in-law Rick Hall; and two grandsons Zakkry and Jason Hall. Gary is survived by his siblings Peter, Ron, Audrey, Ellen and Don; and numerous nieces and nephews.
Gary had a great love of books and spent many hours reading with Wendy; they were truly soul mates.
His church was a large part of Gary’s life, his faith was strong and it helped him through his ordeal.
The family would like to express their heartfelt appreciation to Dr. Mills and all the nursing staff at Kitimat General Hospital, for all the loving care given to Gary.
In lieu of flowers, Wendy suggests donations be made to the Cancer Foundation in Gary’s memory.

In Loving Memory of our Mother and Grandmother
Lola Cornelissen
January 29, 1926 - August 8, 2000
This month comes with deep regret.
It brings back the day we cannot forget.
In our hearts you will always stay,
Loved and remembered every day.
Memories are treasures no one can steal,
Death is a heartache no one can heal.
Life must go on, we know it’s true,
But it’s not the same since we lost you.
You left us suddenly, without a goodbye,
But our memories of you will never die.
Always in our thoughts, and forever in our hearts.
All our love, from your family
The Richters and Greenslades

It’s been a year Jacob, since we’ve felt your big hugs and high fives...so many firsts have come and gone, each experienced with quiet smiles, silent tears, and shared memories of our times with you.
I can still...
...see your big smile as you play soccer with your friends.
...hear the wheels of your walker racing down the hallway.
...feel your arms around me as you hug me.
...see you playing with your many Thomas trains.
...hear you laugh as you win yet another game!
...feel your high fives as you get a pin down at bowling.
...see you dancing and singing to your favourite songs.
...hear you say, “Five more minutes” and “I missed you.”
...feel your hand in mine.
...remember you, Jacob Kyle Jones.
Forever missed by family and friends.
“Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live.”

Heather Crockart
June 28, 1947 to July 14, 2010
Heather was born, and lived, in Ocean Falls BC, and later in Port Alberni BC. Heather and her family, the Tewnions, moved back to Ocean Falls where she met and married her husband, Pete Crockart. Their children Richard and Kim were born and raised in Ocean Falls, before the family later moved to Kitimat in 1971.
Heather contributed much to this community as a childcare worker at Kitimat City High School for 18 years.
Approximately 30 years ago Heather was diagnosed with MS and suffered silently with this disease. She enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren and socializing with her many friends.
After a long battle with MS, Heather’s body was no longer able to carry the load. We are forever grateful that she could be at home with family and friends until her last breath.
Heather was predeceased by her parents, Jim and Netta Tewnion, her husband, Pete, her brother Jack, her brothers-in-law Tullis Lawrence and Don Ong. She leaves behind her children Kim (Paul) Amado and Richard (Eileen) as well as her grandchildren who had a special place in her heart: Sierra, Dana, Madison, Blaine, Quinn and Zoey. Also bereaved are her sisters, Lesley Lawrence, Margie (Reg) Corbin, Lynn (Jack) MacGregor, her mother in law, Gert Crockart, and the Ong Family.
The family would like to thank Dr. Huang, Home Support, the Palliative Care nurses, the pharmacists at Shoppers Drug Mart and the many friends who have dropped by to say goodbye to Mom and offering their kind words to the family.
In lieu of flowers donations to the Multiple Sclerosis Society in Heather’s memory would be appreciated.

Our memories build a special bridge,
when loved ones have to part.
To help us feel we’re with them still,
and sooth a grieving heart.
Our memories span the years we shared,
preserving ties that bind,
They build a special bridge of love
and bring us peace of mind.

In loving memory of our Mother
Maria Theresia Guldin
May 4, 1931 - July 3, 2003
There is always a face before us,
a voice we would love to hear,
a smile we will always remember,
of a Mother we loved so dear.
Deep in our hearts lies a picture,
more precious than silver or gold,
it’s a picture of our Mother,
whose memory will never grow old.
We hold you close within our hearts
and there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives
until we meet again.
Forever in our hearts
Sylvia, Dieter, Margarita, Lucia and families.

It’s been two years
since you passed away,
but the pain is still like yesteday.
If we could have one lifetime wish,
one dream that could come true,
we’d wish with all our hearts for yesterday and you.
We little knew that morning God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone,
for part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
You left us beautiful memories, your love is still our guide,
and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same,
but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
You are forever in our thoughts,
and loved always.
Donna, family and grandkids, Seamus, Jonas and Gavin.

In loving memory of my Mother
Prascilla Audrey Carolyn Howe
June 22, 1945 - June 18, 2009
God,
If you could answer one prayer, I would love it to be,
to give me my Mom one more day spent with me.
To do with her the things I now cannot do,
my life’s gone to pieces, and my Mom was the glue.
If only I knew, that would be her last day,
I would have stayed by her side ‘till her life passed away.
If you’d answer my prayer, I would give to my Mom,
one more kiss, one more hug, and “I love you” from her son.
She was my teacher, my protector, she was also my friend,
she was my Mother, I’m so thankful for her love to the end.
Life’s not been easy God, since she went to you last year,
all the times that I think of her, they just cause me to tear.
She was on loan to us I know, she was a gift from above,
now in death she has new life, thanks to Your Son, and Your love.
She is free of all pain, no more tears, no more fears,
thank you God for giving me her, and all those wonderful years.
For as much as I would love for this prayer to come true,
deep in my heart I believe, she is happier there with you.
Thanks for the promise and the hope found in you,
we’ll be together in eternity, it’s the truth we shared and both knew.
I miss her so much God, please tell her that for me.
Love Calvin
