Condolence From: Barbara and Gary Newman
Condolence: Dear Robert,
Just read about your mom in the Ottawa Citizen. What an interesting lady and what a pioneer. How exciting It must have been for her and her family back in the forties. Erin and I are sending our condolences to you and your son and all the family. Hopefully our paths will cross in Alexandria on of these days so we convey our sympathies in person.
Sincerely,
Barbara (Graham) Newman

Condolence: Mrs. Linney became my friend when I began my working career at Shawinigan Engineering in 1971. She was kind, interested and encouraging, and always positive. I am so glad to have known her.

Condolence: As a child in the 1950/60s I remember Elinor as our next door neighbour in St. Lambert, composting her tea everyday in her huge backyard garden. I remember still the novelty of a female engineer in those days. Much later, in the early 2000's I ended up in Ottawa and helped put Elinor in back contact with my parents to the delight of both sides. We influence those whom we touch.
