This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Bertha LeBlanc Quimby, born on August 10, 1926 and passed away at age 88 on November 23, 2014. We will remember her forever. She had many titles in her life: daughter, mother, grandmother, great grandmother and she was thrilled to have made it to great-great grandmother. She was loved by many family and friends and will be sorely missed here on this earth.
Two wonderful women, mother and daughter that were fortunate enough to do some traveling together, now they are together and can travel the universe without fear or pain. You are our flashlite of life ladies!
Malia Lane who set up this memorial page for her mother, passed away on February 11, 2019. Check out Malia's memorial page at https://www.forevermissed.com/malia-lane/#about . We miss them both so much.
I don’t know how old I was when I first saw this picture taken of her when she was 19. I must have been young and silly enough to have been shocked at how pretty she was and that I couldn’t believe she had ever been that young. When I told her that, she told me how she always hated that picture – because she hadn’t noticed the rip below the shoulder of the dress and she said she was always embarrassed that she thought she looked like a “poor little country girl who didn’t know better.” I remember thinking at at the time that until she brought it up, I hadn’t even noticed the tear. As I’ve thought on her comment since then, I realize now she had a lot of insecurities from her childhood and like so many of us, those insecurities haunted her and kept her from being as happy as she could have been, even long into adulthood. I trust you're in a place now where you know you beautiful you are, mama, and are clothed in perfection.
