Enid loved her 3 children, her grandkids, great grandkids and the many, many children that she taught in Chilliwack over the years. She considered herself one of the more fortunate people in the world, for she absolutely loved teaching. She was grateful for the contact it allowed her with the many school families that she had met in Chilliwack.
Thanks to all the friends and families who worked with her over the years, and to those who helped with her interesting endeavors throughout her retirement. Certainly many thanks to those who helped her in her last few years. She appreciated your friendship so much!
Enid's wishes are for a private family goodbye. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Stephen Lewis's 'Grandmothers' to Grandmothers' (to assist Grandmothers in Africa to look after their orphaned grandchildren). Enid's feeling was that today's African grannies are the true heroines of this world.
While wondering through the woodlands, I paused for reflection … Irregular, not ordered lines, to me means perfection. Surrounded by woodland and ferns, I find peace, for nature is around me, a true masterpiece. The ferns are nurtured at Mother Earth's breast - so is it any wonder that they stay closely pressed to their mother, who tenderly gives them her care. And they, in return become curls for her hair. Their green blend with changing hues of each day; mauves, golds, ochers and yes even gray. Dapples of sunlight fall into the brush - all so beautiful - there in the hush. Sometimes raindrops glisten, some times the dew, but these just serve to intensify the hues of the lovely shapes set out for display … of ferns (and wee creatures) in their world today. Each fern frond is the same, yet really not so, for each is an individual and does separately grow to become its own shape; each shows beauty and grace. So please, when I move on, my perfect resting place would be under a fern, where I'll have time for reflection at Heaven's door, amid Nature's perfection! Written by Enid Kulesh
