Trusting that God knows what is best for all of us, it was in His wise council to take your dear mother, grandmother and great-grandmother from this earth to be with Him.
Let us be grateful for the years she was amongst us.
Your friends,
Christine & Dieter

When i think of Mrs. Jabs, i remember a warm kind mom that lived across the street from us on Elnathan Cres many years ago. Someone that was always friendly to all the neighbors. She was an excellent baker that would share her delicious cookies with us and on special days would make banana milkshakes for me.
I, along with my husband Claudio and my sisters Denise and Janet would like to express our deepest condolences to Esther, Iris, Christine, Margitta, Dan, Harry and their families.
May you treasure your memories of her always.

So sorry to hear of your loss. I was an old friend of Iris, whom I’ve sadly lost touch with. Maybe one day we will meet again.
