Gay was a bright light in my life. She and I shared lots of love and smiling times while singing together in Sweet Adelines. I have remembered her often since then. The angels are singing brighter these days. My condolences to you and your family Ron. Lynn (England) Baarschers
My sincere condolences to the family Spalding for the lost of your beloved mother Nora, sharing this message from the Bible where our God Jehovah promised a resurrection for our dear ones. John 6: 39,40, and give everlasting life here on the earth in a renewed paradise. Psalms 37:11,29, while we wait for these blessing in a near future that the peace of God be with the family.

So very sad to hear of Gay’s passing. I met her through Sweet Adelines and also shared the fun of line dancing with her and Ron. Spent many hours having fun together! Sending my condolences to the family and especially Ron.

This news is very sad. We have many good memories of our times with Gay and speak of her often. Ron and family, sending you hugs. Cherish your memories.
This brings tears to my eyes. I hadn’t heard about Gay’s passing and am very sad. She was a great friend, and Ron, I know you will miss her so much!
She will definitely be singing with her beautiful voice and lalala-ing like she loved to do, when she didn’t remember the words.
Hugs and love to you Ron and the whole family!
Love Diane and Jim

Thinking about all of the Spalding family at this time.
I have such fond memories of sleepovers at your and Ron’s home on College Street in Sarnia. Crystal and I would return to your home and crash after a night on the town.
Condolences to you all.
Sincerely,

You will be missed Gay. No more pain for you, sing loud wherever you go!
