Family meant everything to Daphne, and you didn't need to be of any relation to be considered family. She loved anyone who came into her life, with a special place in her heart for all "the boys" who she treated as her sons.
Born in 1935, Daphne moved to Canada from Guyana in 1966 where she spent the remainder of her life. She was a religious woman who enjoyed reading the bible and listening to gospel music. Her biggest joy was watching her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren grow up.

The time has come for you to go. You will never know how many people you have touched or how much you are loved. It's time for us to let you go, but you will never be forgotten. We will love you with all our hearts, always and forever."
