JoAnne and family,
I am so sorry to hear about Val's passing. We worked together at the Workers Compensation Board and she was just the sweetest lady. When I was at the Chateau de Champlain to vote in the recent election I saw her and we had a great chat. Please know I am thinking about you all and will be keeping you in my prayers.

JoAnne, Keith, Bryan and families, on behalf of my Mom, Barbara (Thorne) Lamb and the Lamb family we send our heartfelt condolences. Mom and Val were lifelong friends and when they were able to get together we were entertained by the many hilarious stories of their childhood in the North End. Val’s laughter was infectious and we will remember her fondly. She was a wonderful person and will not be forgotten.
May the comfort of your family and friends and wonderful memories help ease your sorrow. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Hugs from the Lamb family ❤️

Hi Joanne,
I feel so sad hearing that your mother has moved to that higher plain of existence. When we were younger you mother was always at the center of activity at your neighbourhood parties. She had the biggest, happiest ,booming voice. She said what she felt, and meant what she said. Super nice lady.
I know you are strong. Take care.
Rob,

I'm so sorry to hear of Valerie's passing. She was always such a cheerful, sweet lady. I lived around the corner from her in Fundy Heights for many years, but never really got to know her until I met her at our Tops meetings. I picked her up every Wednesday night for the meetings.....may she Rest In Peace.g
