Dear George and Family, Please accept our sincere condolences in Sadie’s passing. She was such a brave lady and fought long and hard throughout her illness. She will be remembered for her fun loving spirit, her great sense of humor, her positive attitude, that big smile and her willingness to lend a hand on the spur of the moment. Sadie was filled with compassion and along with George stepped in on a moments notice to fasten up a fallen Christmas tree or pick up a new microwave for Mom ( Doris). Mom will especially miss her special Newfoundland dinners. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this sad time. Hold on to the family traditions and the great memories that you have built over the years and let them give you strength to move forward. RIP, Sadie

Dear George & Families.
Francis & I Were Very Saddened To Hear Of Sadie’s Passing. I Always Enjoyed Talking To Sadie When She Came Into Sobeys She Always Made Me Laugh. I Use To tease Her About George’s Beard And Told Her I Wasn’t Going To Hug Him Anymore Until He Got Rid Of That Awful Beard, We Had Quite A Chuckle Over That. Another Time She Came in the Store And I Asked Her Where She Got Her Cancer Change Purse From, And She Told Me Avon, I Will Never Forget When She Dumped Her Change In her Purse And Gave Me The Change Purse And Said she would Get Another one For Herself. This was The kind Of Lady That She Was. Very Kind, Always Full Of Fun And Never Forgot Anyone!!! God Bless You Sadie, God Has Seen to It that You received Your Golden Wings. George, My Thoughts Are With You And Your Family At This Most Difficult Time In Your Lives, God Be With You All !!!!
Sincerely,
Francis & Peggy Payzant ( Retired Sobeys Cashier ) P.S. I Still Have The Change Purse. I Will Hold it Close To My Heart.
