Sad news this past weekend that my grandmother Kathleen Tremeer has passed away. An inspiration to my dad Robert and mom Donna Danahy much loved Grandma to myself and sister Jennifer Danahy, Great grandma to Tessa Santoni (Majed Jarrar) and Samantha Santoni (Ennio Aguilera) my sisters twins Victor and Nicolas Mesquita, great great grandma to Eli and Selma. She was so proud of you all. You all brought her endless joy, and tales of your life adventures kept her going in her later years to reach her centennial celebration of 100 years young this past July 2016. Thank you Samantha for capturing her joy that day through these pictures and allowing us to treasure them for years to come.
Kathleen was an amazing, humble, hard working women who grew up in Little Britain Ontario devoting herself to her family and the family farm. As a young women in the early 1900s life in rural Ontario on the farm wasn't easy. No indoor plumbing, appliances and other conveniences we take for granted today but she worked tirelessly and without complaint to ensure her home was ship shape, there was warm breakfast in the wee hours when it was time to get up and milk the cows and a hardy dinner including an assortment of pies when the men returned home from the crops every evening. Her entire life she made all of us feel so special, welcome, loved, appreciated. Holidays whether Easter, Thanksgiving or Christmas meant a much anticipated trip to Little Britain and later Lindsay for great food and lively games together as a family. Euchre, Kings in the Corner, 31, croquenol and of course pumpkin pie and curly cakes for desert. She loved to make things by her own hands, encouraging us at a young age to do the same, be thrifty, be respectful and good to your word, kind to others and be appreciative for the little things in life. Great rules to live by indeed.
Rest peacefully grandma Kathleen, so have helped shaped all of us...your memory will live on<3
