Condolence: Dearest Eudora
You were the sister I never had and I miss every day. I will love you forever. Thank-you for being my aunt and making so much of my life special

Condolence: Dear Rev. Wainwright, I have just heard of Eudora's passing into glory. I remember many years ago when Eudora and you would visit my grandmother in the hospital to give us a break and when we would come back the two of you would be there sitting holding my grandmothers hand and singing the old hymns to her. A very precious memory. Stay strong David for 'He' is your strength. My thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

Condolence: Today I was talking to Doreen Smith who remembers Eudora in the choir at the Church of the Good Shepherd. I heard many memories of days of the Good Shepherd. Know that on the 25th Eudora's name was read in the prayers for the people. Much love sent to you all at this time. Shirley God Bless

Condolence: My heart goes out to the family during this difficult time. As a young woman whose had joined the Wainwright family, I remember Eudora as a welcoming, caring and loving mother, aunt and wife. It was clear to me that she dedicated her life to her husband David, her children Don and Bob and their families. Rest in peace Eudora.

Condolence: Words can't describe how much you meant to me, how much you enriched my life, and made me who I am as a person. You brought our family so much love, un-wavering and unconditional. You gave us beautiful traditions, and sense of family. You will live on through those traditions, every year as we bake our gingerbread and other goodies, and gather for Christmas and Thanksgiving we will think of you. I love you Grandma forever and always, I will miss you so much.

Condolence: Dear Aunt Eudora,
You will be missed by all of us. Our condolences to the family come from Marge and I, Ryan and his family, and Jessica and her family.
I too remember the first time that Uncle Dave came to our house when you and he were first married. You quickly became a part of the family and visited often. You were very caring and made us feel welcome like when Hilary, Jessica, and I visited at your cottage on the Georgian Bay and at your place when Ryan and I visited in the winter. Hilary still has the tea set that you gave as a wedding gift. I hope you had the chance to view the pictures of family that I sent for Christmas.
I know you will be watching over Uncle Dave from you new Home.
Love Always,
Roy and Family

Condolence: Bob and I are very sorry to read of Eudora's passing. Our prayers and thoughts are with David and family at this very sad time.

Condolence: I know I speak with the feelings of all my brothers and my sister. From the time we met her in 1951 when Uncle Dave brought her to our house in Michigan, we all fell in love with her and felt that those feelings were returned. Dave and Eudora's visits over the years were always enjoyed. When I visited the November after my wife passed, she prepared a Thanksgiving dinner on the US holiday. She always went out of her way to make me feel not just welcome, but at home. And even though our family sometimes forgot birthdays, she NEVER did.

She loved working for the church and I saw the work that she and other ministers wives did on liturgical garments was simply amazing.

I am sure that she has received her reward and will be waiting to greet each of her loved ones as they rejoin her.

Condolence: I have been trying to think of what to say, but after hours of searching for the right words it seems that no words can express what I feel. All I can think of is -- my Mom cannot be gone! I keep feeling that she's going to show up, and come walking into the kitchen and start making breakfast for Dad and me.

I have been staying with Dad over the last number of days and he keeps asking me if Eudora is gone. My answer each time has to be "yes Dad Mom is gone." Even though I say these words over and over to Dad they come from an empty place inside of me. I just don't believe the words myself.

I have been close to Mom my entire life and she has always been there for me. Mom has always been the one I would go to in times of worry or stress or times of need. Her love has always been unconditional and she's always come through for me and my family.

We haven't always seen eye-to-eye and I know I gave her many worries over the years. Mom always had a plan that had to go through in a certain way and many times I just didn't agree.

I'm a plain sort of guy and over the years I gave her a hard time about all the fancy things she liked to have in her house. Now I see in a different light. Mom did everything she could do to make things special and bring beauty to her family and everyone around her.

Every corner of her house has special displays of lovely little ornaments and keepsakes that she's collected over the years and all I can think of is how beautiful they are and how important they were to her.

Whenever mom did something it was always special whether it was Christmas, camping trips, or one of our family's favorite things -- staying at the cottage. When Mom took us on a picnic we could expect the normal -- sandwiches, some fried chicken -- always on a fancy tablecloth of course, but then she would start pulling out the pies, the butter tarts, special cookies and all kinds of goodies.

I always told Mom that no matter how old she got she always had the same young voice whenever I talked to her on the phone. How I hated it when in the last month or so I started hearing her voice fail. The last time I spoke to her in the hospital I said hi Ma! and in her frail failing voice she said you're still calling me Ma after all these years.

Mom I know you're in heaven now and someday I will hear that young voice again. Until that day I hope that you will look down on me and that I will still be able to talk to you and I will hear that beautiful young voice in my heart.

Mom Susan and I and our entire family love you with all our heart and will miss you always -- goodbye!

Condolence:
We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of our dear friend Eudora. We
received wonderful hospitality, friendship and sharing of memories with her and David. Of indomitable spirit, we were awed by her courage in ministry even when she had health challenges. Her deep faith shone. God has given her rest from suffering. We bless the Lord for the gift of Eudora's life and for the gift of her friendship. May she rest in peace in the love of Jesus.
