I still remember the day you were born thirty years ago. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you and that cheeky smile. I wish you were here today and every day and I hope you are doing ok. I get your dimes that you leave for me, to let me know you are watching over me. The only gifts today are the ones you left behind. The laughter and the joy your brought to everyone around you. I feel honoured that I was able to be mom and had you for 28 years, but I will never stop being your mom. You were my greatest achievement. Today I will celebrate you and Canada day and the precious memories you left. Happy Birthday to my son in Heaven on this day. Forever and always, Your Momma xoxo HIGGINS, Edna Agnes (nee Sylvester) Beloved wife of the late James (Jim) John Higgins, passed away peacefully surrounded by all her children and their spouses at Trafalgar Lodge in Oakville, Ontario, on Thursday, June 20, 2019 at the age of 103 years. Dear mother of Michael (Joanne Carrelli), Eileen (Peter Content), Donald (Linda Griffiths), Maureen (Larry O'Connor), and James (Tamara Rudnicki). Edna leaves an amazing legacy of 12 grandchildren, 20 great-grandchildren and one great- great-grandchild. Edna was born March 7, 1916 and raised in Montreal, Quebec. She was the eighth and the last surviving of nine children of Mary Anne (Reidy) and Joseph Sylvester. Edna reached centenary status by walking, swimming, playing tennis, and most important, genetics. Parents and two brothers lived to 90's and one sister to 100. Edna was a sixth generation descendant of Nicolas Silvestre, a soldier with the Carignan- Salieres regiment that was sent in 1660 to protect New France. He subsequently settled on land near Quebec City. To make a donation in memory of Edna or to make an online condolence, please visit www.glenoaks.ca. HEFFERNAN, Terrence James Hubert Paul Was born in Guelph, Ontario on February 8, 1935 and passed away peacefully at Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital on Thursday, June 20, 2019. He will now be reunited with his brother Dennis and 'Uncle Joe', as well as his beloved faithful dog Rocky. Known for his gregarious sense of humor, he will be much missed by his wife Catherine, and his children Michael (Tiffany), Maureen, Paul (d.1971) and Dennis (Kittyrose), as well as his grandchildren Nash Hudson and Kathryanna. Terry and Cathy first moved to Oakville in 1966, and Terry was well known throughout St. Dominic's Parish and Oakville for his work at the church as well as the Oakville Minor Hockey Association as a coach and convener. Terry had a versatile skill set that brought him from the racetrack to the car business to the exhibit industry and so many other stops in between. He enjoyed his last job as a crossing guard most - all the kids and dogs in the neighbourhood knew and loved Terry; and he in turn loved all of them. His kindness, wisdom and his sincere interest in people led him to find a friend in almost everyone he met. The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Dr. Benjamin, nurse Chris Monaghan and the whole Acclaim Health team, as well as to the staff at the Oakville Hospital for their kindness and compassion. In lieu of flowers, donations to Acclaim Health would be appreciated.
