A great lady, and whilst she and geoff parted on a rather terse basis, she was and rightly so very concerned about the direction their life was taking.

She was a caring soul and it was a shame when the end came. Was the receiver of many kind acts from her and the world is not the same without her.

Too much sadness may the Lord safely hold her in his arms.

I am sad to hear that Ma Yappy has passed even though it is some time since her and I chatted through Messenger. Rest in Peace Carman and don't get up to anything with Geoff and Bob now will you!

Hell! Another one gone.

Yappy's sister died from lung cancer as well, being a very heavy smoker like Yappy was.

Last time her and Geoff visited, she (and sometimes both) went out frequently to the deck to have a puff or two.

During their visit, while Geoff and I went riding about in my C15A, Carman and my wife had a girlie talk. Seems that a great deal of their break up situation revolved around the fact that Geoff could pay for a trip to Australia but would not finance her visit to Manitoba to attend her sister's funeral.

So, there's some background to the story.
