We have so many memories of the Minard family as our lives intersected in many ways over many years. We loved meeting Catherine and always swapped ‘catching up’ family stories. She will be remembered as a strong personality, a wonderful wife to Ralph and mom to her girls. She never failed to smile and spread happiness. Hers was a full life with memorable times. She will be missed and always remembered.

Sorry to hear of your Mother’s passing.
Thinking of you both at this time

Elizabeth, Donna and families, I was so shocked to hear of Catherine’s passing. Please accept
my condolences.

It’s hard to imagine that I spoke with Catherine so very recently. She had that same bright eyed appearance and obvious joix de vivre we all fondly recall.
Catherine and Ralph were a big part of our lives and Dad (Earl Chute) enjoyed speaking/phoning her often. Reminisces, family updates, good times.
Rest in Peace. Life is best remembered by celebrating the memories. It’s what matters most.
Sincere condolences to family and friends alike.

Dear Donna,Liz and families:
My sincere condolences in the sudden passing of your loved one. Seems impossible happening so quickly. I certainly miss our conversations each morning at 8 when we checked in each day and shared our daily plans. A true friend leaving me with so many wonderful memories. Rest In Peace my friend.
Fern

Elizabeth and Donna:
I just read the obituary of your Mom on Chandler’s web site. I was totally shocked as we use to talk once in awhile since Juna’s passing. I know she missed talking with Juna but now they are reunited along with their husbands. I enjoyed our talks and reminising so much. I will certainly miss her. I extend deepest sympathy to all of you and pray God’s blessing upon you all as you mourn her loss.
Myrna

Your mother was a lovely lady – always friendly, smiling, and kind. She added a sparkle to my fitness classes and showed up no matter what the weather, eager to have some fun! I knew your folks years ago and noted the depth of their love for one another. My parents, Ernest and Doreen Pierce, knew your dad through Carman Pierce at Rossignol Sales. I am very sorry you’ve lost your beautiful mom.

To Ralph and Catherine’s family – I was saddened to hear about Catherine’s passing. I knew Catherine along with her husband Ralph for many, many years. Both had a great sense of humour and were heavily involved in the community of Liverpool and Queen’s County. Catherine was always a joy to meet and spend time with at their home on Main Street. She will be missed by all those who knew her.

Dear Donna & Liz,
So sorry to hear of your mother’s death. She and my Grandmother Doris were first cousins, and we all talked family news and other news whenever we would meet or visit your Mum. She knew all the people in Maitland Bridge, as it was her birthplace and first home. She had a great way about her, very likeable.
She will be missed by all of us.

When we first moved to Liverpool from North Queens, Catherine was one of the first to welcome us. She was a good friend, always kind, and we will miss her. We end our sympathy and best wishes to her family.

To the Minard Family, I am so sorry for your loss. I have know Catherine for many years through Kinettes and the Hospital Auxiliary. She will be missed by all who knew her. My Deepest Condolences to you all at this sad time. TAKE CARE. RIP Catherine

Dear Minard Family, how shocked & saddened we are to learn of Catherine’s passing. She leaves us with happy thoughts of a long friendship

Sad to hear of the death of Catherine Minard.
One of my Mom’s oldest and dearest friends.
She was a great help to me back in the early 80’s when I worked part-time at the local Sears store.
She and Mom are out there playing a few hands of bridge, I have no doubt.

My condolences to the family.

To Catherine’s Family, We were very sorry to hear of Catherine’s passing and would like to extend our sincere condolences to you all at this sad time.

So sorry to learn of your mom’s passing. I have many fond memories of time spent with Catherine as well as Ralph over the years. This was especially true of our times in the KIN family. May your memories help you all going forward.

Hugh Mosher

I was so sorry to hear of Catherine’s passing. I mainly knew her from Zion United Church. She rarely missed a service and was there the other Sunday, that will be one of our last services. I also often met her when I was out walking and we would stop for a chat. I think she always took longer walks than I did even though 20 years older than I am! I admired her determination to keep active and how she pushed on through setbacks that made walking a challenge. Often in past summers we met her picking blackberries in the same area that we liked to go and we shared the same delight in making blackberry jelly. I will particularly think of her whenever the blackberries are ripe and it’s jelly making time. My thoughts are with her family now as you mourn her passing. Marjorie

To the Minard Family,

We are saddened to hear of Catherine’s death. Our parents shared many activities; the United Church, curling club and K-40’s. They had tight friendships and so much fun. We will remember Catherine for her big smile and positive outlook. Sending our thoughts and prayers. Lorna & Stewart

Dear Minard family, our thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time. I know your mom loved you both very much. I enjoyed our chats over the years, she will be missed. Blessings

I worked with your mom for many years at Sears Canada Inc. and it was always a pleasure.

So very sorry to see that Catherine has passed away. She was a great person and we chatted on the phone quite often. I will miss those calls. Robert knew her way back when she lived in Maitland Bridge. Sending our sincere condolences at this very sad and difficult time.

I am very sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. I have many good memories of her and Ralph, and will miss her bright smile and zest for life. Sending my sincere condolences.

Dear Donna and Liz – we are so sorry to hear of the passing of our good friend, Catherine. In years gone by we enjoyed many meals together. Probably our fondest and funniest memories of Catherine and Ralph were our Saturday nights together where we would have dinner together and then go for Line Dancing lessons which Ralph didn’t enjoy. He would stand at the back where no one could see that he was not paying any attention at all but at the end he would say “Well, that was fun”. We loved them both. Butch and Loretta

We were so very sorry to hear of Catherine’s passing. We enjoyed lots of fun times together in Kinettes and K-40 as well as Bridge, Curling and other community events. She always had a joke and a laugh to share. Our thoughts are with you at this sad time. Linda & Dennis MacKinnon

Sending our condolences to the family.

My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family.

Liz, Neil, Donna, Cam and family
So sorry to hear about Aunt Catherine. We will miss visiting her on our trips to Nova Scotia. Know that our thought are with you at this difficult time. RIP Catherine.

How shocked we are to learn of Catherine’ sudden passing. She and Ralph became friends shortly after our arrival here 50 years ago. That friendsip certainly enriched our lives for which we remain grateful. Thoughts & prayers are with you.

Sorry for your loss
Keith & Carolann Harvey

On behalf of the Queens General Hospital Auxiliary I am sending our condolences to Catherine’s family. Family was very important to Catherine as was service to her community.

So sorry to see your mom passed away. She was a lovely person who always had a smile.

Sorry to read of Catherine’ passing we send our condolences to her family.

Catherine was one of the prettiest older women I have ever seen. She was always lovely, even as a young woman, but she particularly shone with beauty when she got older. I saw her at church in the summertime when I was in Nova Scotia and am very sad to think that I won’t see her again.
She and Ralph had some pretty good parties when Bill and I lived in Liverpool. We laughed a lot, and that is one of the best parts of being friends.
You, her family, were so important to her. She loved you and was proud of all your accomplishments.
I send you affection and sympathy,
Molly

Dear Donna, Liz, and families,

She always had a smile, as I remember. You are fortunate to have had such a great mom. Pat and I send our condolences.

Condolences to the family. Catherine was a dear friend of our family and close friend of my mom. Have great thanks to offer for Catherine’s help and instructions when working with her at Sears and will always remember as a truly wonderful lady.

Dear Liz and Donna,
My condolences for the loss of your mother.
Take care.

We would like to send our deepest condolences to the family. Frank Rowter & Family
