I first met Ramona at knitting at McDonalds (McKnitting) and one day it was just the two of us so we got to know each other. Ramona was a very special lady, delightful, wickedly funny and deeply caring. I will miss her smile and frank honesty. She was a treasure.

I met Ramona while we were both working at Stanton Hospital in Yellowknife. She was kind, caring, funny and a great Nurse. I’m so very sorry for her loss. May her memory be a blessing.

I have known Ramona for many years through church. She was always ready to lend a helping hand and did many behind the scenes work to help with services, council and committees. I will remember her bright smile, laugh and listening ear. She touched many lives over the years and made a difference during her time here. She will be missed.

May God bless her, keep her and give her everlasting peace.
