Obituaries
This is a collection of obituary transcriptions for the Voisin and Stewart families. Besides providing clues about relatives, obituaries give us a glimpse at the lives of our ancestors. Ladies are listed by their married names with maiden names in parentheses. Each link will open a separate pop-up window.
I read of a man who stood to speak
at the funeral of a friend.
He referred to the dates on her tombstone
from the beginning...to the end.
He noted that first came the date of her birth
and spoke of the following date with tears,
but he said what mattered most of all
was the dash between those years.
For that dash represents all the time
that she spent alive on earth...
and now only those who loved her
know what that little line is worth.
