    As an old neighbour in Tottenham, I will never forget Vally and Steve. They both were fantastic people and I think of them often. My heartfelt condolences for your loss.

    Aranka: My husband and I rented our first apt. from your Mom and Dad when they lived on the farm on Dufferin St. in 1970. You were in Grade one and I can still see your Mom waiting for the school bus to drop you off. Your parents were very kind people and I’m sure you will miss your Mom very much.

    I remember first day you walked into Tim Hortons with painting attire and tell tale smudges of color with a big smile on your face. So excited to be painting your rooms. Your energy and smile brightened the day. You will be missed.

    What a wonderful lady and great friend. Vally spread joy where ever she went. She brighten many of my days with her smile and stories. Our tears are not for her as I am sure she is happy, without pain and with Steve, our tears are for us who will miss her greatly.

    We were very saddened to hear of Vally’s passing. We were blessed to know her, even though it was for a short time, in her very long and full life. Vally was such a wonderful friend to our Mom, Donna. Surely she will treasure that friendship forever. We’ll be thinking of all of Vally’s loved family and friends, during this very difficult time. Sam & John Chamberlain

    Vally was such a wonderful lady….so caring and kind to the ultimate level.

    My heart goes out to her beautiful daughter and son-in-law. Vally was blessed with a lovely grand-daughter who she thought the world of.

    All my love to Vally’s family who are so special to me. Colleen xox
