Birth date: Feb 17, 1927 Death date: Jul 14, 2019
On the seventeenth of February, nineteen hundred and twenty-seven, in the little town of Näs, just a bit south of Östersund, our mother was born. Siv Birgit Margareta grew up, however, on an island called Frösön attached to Östers Read Obituary
Our beloved mother's life journey has taken her back to her beloved Jämtland and her Frösön church where she was married and now buried.
Please accept my condolences on the passing of your mother. Although it has been many years since I last saw her, I still remember her as kind, graceful and self-effacing. I especially remember her teaching our Girl Scout troop how to bake Swedish Christmas cookies and sharing stories of her beloved Sweden.
My mother, Mary Reynolds, treasured her friendship and we were saddened when your family moved to south Dade (which, in the 60s, seemed terribly distant).
She was, despite her modesty, clearly a remarkable woman. I know she will be missed.
Sincerely, Vanessa Reynolds
