Condolences & Donations

Mabel was the heart and soul of the IBM Windsor office for over 25 years, and she 'trained' a generation of wet-behind-the-ears sales reps and Systems Engineers (and Branch Managers!) in the 60s and 70s. Never having children of her own, she was "Auntie Mabs" to dozens of IBMers children, always remembering a birthday. We are sorry she has gone, but thankful her struggle with illness is over. Rest well, Mabs

At IBM in Windsor in the late 60's and 70's, Mabel was a legend. I was fortunate enough to be one of her "boys" back then. "Mabes" was one of a kind, a wonderful lady. My condolences to her family.

Mabel was the hit of every party. What wonderful memories we have of the good ol' IBM days. Thanks, Mabes for all the great times! CC and Gloria

Deepest sympathies to Mabel's family and to my sister Marg who spent so much of her time caring for mabel. She was a sparkplug of a lady as I remembered her in the times Marg brought her over to the house or when we saw her with Marg. She will be missed by those who knew her well. Rest in peace Mabel.
