My sincere condolences to all of Donna’s family, she was such a special lady. Dealing with Donna and all of the Borrowman family was always a great pleasure during my years at DPM. A long time ago, Donna gave me one of her beautiful lace angels, I will continue to remember her whenever I see it. May your treasured memories of her and Calvin bring comfort and peace to all of you.

Our Family Extend Most Sincere Sympathy To Our Borrowman Cousins. I, Don with health and distance being the major factor was unable to be with you in person, however my spouse Patricia and I including our family are by your side in Spirit & Prayer. Memories abound of Donna with I, Calvin and his sister Ena being second cousins, the Borrowman’s Grove/Jellystone Park era and our many Family Reunions held there with surnames Borrowman and Squire alternating annually in memory of our Grt. Grandparents Alex. II and Elizabeth (Squire) Borrowman. Although currently the reunions are held elswhere and perhaps beyond belief however they have existed to the present year for over thirty years and somewhat thanks to your family’s gracious support by providing use of the campground in earlier years. Then I well remember Calvin’s father Harold and being my Dad Kenneth’s first cousin and Harold’s father Tom who had initially purchased the farm and being a brother of my Grandfather Alex. III, the latter who had passed away prior to my era. Doug and Royce, not to be forgotten is your brother Allan who passed away unfortunately at an early age, while I employed at the Tecumseh Green Giant Plant would have on occasion many brief moments of conversation with him as he hauled Sweet Corn with his very impressive black and meticulously cared for semi-truck and trailer. Then when in the area we would visit he and Gisele briefly, which was always a pleasure to reminisce as my mother Verlie (Dubé) was born in 1904 in a log house on a nearby farm to the east which had been that of her Great Grandparents from Québec. She had attended the stone faced cement block school on Meloche Rd. some distance to the west with your grandfather Harold and his brother Ed.

Dear Royce, Doug and families... My heartfelt condolences to all of you. Your "Mom" touched many many lives throughout the years and will always be warmly remembered for her kindness, fairness and of course her radiant smile. So many of us will forever cherish the memories of "Borrowman's Grove / Jellystone Park and think of her. Her gentle soul is finally at peace in Heaven's eternal campsite.

As someone else put, Borrowman's grove will always hold a special place in so many of our hearts. I was employed by the Borrowman's at Jelly stone park for many summers. Donna was so good to me. Thank you so much for all you did for me; you helped me save for university and gave me some of the best memories of my life. Definitely an upstanding kind FAIR and generous woman. Her actions influenced the trajectory of my journey that's for certain and allowed me opportunities I otherwise would not have been able to of obtained. You will be missed, and never forgotten. Forever in my heart. thank you thank you thank you for your kindness. Love you Donna

Life Beyond Dear Family!! I feel the warmth upon my face as I enter the land of God's good grace, Friends and loved ones gone before, waiting here beyond the door. With open arms they welcome me, amazement in my eyes they see. They look so well and at their best, beauty beholds them now they rest. I walk across the grass so green, the greenest grass I've ever seen, I jump and skip and bounce on air, it's almost like there's nothing there. A sky of blue, not a cloud in sight, perpetual day no darkest night. Every flower is in full bloom, undefined colours of every hue. The streams and rivers crystal clear, no rubbish or decay found here. The sea is calm and turquoise blue, I long to test it, wouldn't you? The softest sand beneath my feet, at the waters edge where they both meet. The warmest waters gently flow, bathing me from head to toe. A city built of alabaster walls, where translucent light eliminates the halls. Theatres of music and concerts too, magnificent galleries for all to view. Amazing sights for me to see, I just wander in, there's no entrance fee. Libraries stacked with books galore, history, science and many more. The celestial sun does forever shine, it's a perfect temperature all the time. Orchards here overflow with fruit, a taste in itself that is quite exquisite. I'm told it will help my soul to restore, pick what I like, there is plenty more. This ethereal plain is a pure delight, it's my new home, my God given right. There is nothing here to cause me fear, the lord protects within his sphere. An infinity of perfect peace, from the toils of earth I am now released. I have landed on a higher realm, in perfect harmony to forever dwell. So believe when I tell you my dear friends, you cannot die, life never ends. LOVE BILL & SANDI
