You were strong, steady, and full of quiet wisdom. You led by example—firm but fair, humble yet confident. You showed me how to treat people, how to stand tall, and how to carry yourself with dignity. I’ll never forget the lessons you shared. And even your silence taught me something. I'll miss you, Grandmother You left a legacy not just of wisdom, but of love. And I’ll honour it for the rest of my life.

To The Family, Sincerest condolences on behalf of The Thompson family. Ms. Valma was my grandmother’s running buddy back in the day. She was a regular at our house and a huge part of our family. She was even there for us when our grandma passed away. You all pull together and celebrate her life and cherish her memory.
