Rest in peace Thelma! You lived a long life and you looked after your family. You will be missed by your children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. You looked after Gerrard for more than 20 years and for that your children are grateful!!
Sorry to hear about aunt Thelma passing. I have some fond memories of her and uncle Gerard. When my mother and her were together, it was great TV.
We are so sorry to hear of Thelma’s passing. We are related to her late sister Aileen in Newfoundland and remember the many family stories of their lives and friendship.
They were the last remaining sisters and were very close. May she rest in peace.
Our thoughts are with you and the memories too of a very remarkable woman. Isabella and Thelma were two peas in pod and gave us so much joy and laughter when they got together. They are both missed dearly. R.I.P Thelma and please say hello to our dear mom – Isabella .
