Hi Barb, Stephen and families,
Sad to read news of Mom's passing Barb. Joanne and I only met her on a few occasions over the years but know from countless stories, she was a loving mom and all-round great lady!
This last while has been difficult for all of you and we know you take comfort in the knowledge that mom 's suffering is over and she is resting in that "special" place in heaven, reserved for moms and dads.
Our sympathy to each of you,

Kathy, Peggy and Grimmer Family,
So sorry about your Mum. "Mrs. Grimmer" laid out a strong educational foundation starting in Kindergarden through Forest Hills Elementary School for many neighbourhood kids for many years. Mrs. Grimmer made all her students feel very special and will be missed by all of us. I remember your Mum was always smiling and being very nurturing. One of my fondest memories was her giving me a big hug for getting a correct answer in Grade One! May good memories, such as mine, be a source of comfort at this difficult time. From the Dickson Family to yours, please accept our sincere condolences and know you are all in our thoughts and prayers. God bless.

I was sad to hear the news of the passing of one of my favorite teachers. Her picture brought back such warm memories.
A little story for you.
I was a terrible math student, but not due to lack of effort. She knew how hard I worked and It was her mission to help change that.
We use to have flash card competitions in class.(Grade 3) These had become a very big deal. The winner would get to wear a crown and it was theirs for the week! ( a paper crown from Burger King no less! ) Week after week, I would get defeated as we had one boy in class, that was extremely
smart......Well, I had worked very hard with Mrs. Grimmer and my Mother to get my multiplication tables perfect and I finally won.
I think she cheered the loudest! She was so proud of me! I have never forgotten this moment and I have never forgotten her and the lesson she taught me that day.
I have a little red Christmas sled that her husband had made and sold during Christmas that year. My mother gave it to me when I was married and It still has a very special place in my house during the holidays.
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. She was a very special lady.

I have so many fond memories of Mrs Grimmer. Switching to 'Liz' never felt right, somehow. She made sure there was always a lot of food, and it always came with advice "Now, Sue...". I'm thankful that I grew up in our corner of Forest Hills with the Grimmers and thankful for the impact Liz had on my life.
My condolences and lots of love to the whole family.
