Thelma Peters

I heard a robin sing one early Wednesday morn, it sang a song of freedom as the angels took her home...

1 Corinthians 15:51-54King James Version (KJV) 
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 


Her beauty, her life, her song will live forever in all the lives and hearts that she touched.

Cremation has taken place. Her final resting place will be Kenora Ontario as it was her hearts desire and request.

As an expression of sympathy, memorial donations to the Alzheimer Society would be appreciated.
