I have never met with deceased but she was our senior in the same college and same program of studies. I have read this news on college's facebook page and I feel much more sadness. It will absolutely be a very hard time for the parents and her brother to bear this loss. However, We all have to go back one day to our Lord creator. I pray to God to give all of you the courage to bear this loss and I also pray for the deceased to be in heavens and her soul may rest in peace for ever.

To the Harford Family, My deepest condolences go out to you. I had known Tavira for only a short time but the memory of her is strong. She was such a kind, bright and confident student. The light that shines the brightest, burns half as long. I wish her to be at peace, and to know she will never be forgotten.

my sincerest condolences to the parents of Tavira, we will pray for her.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Harford family, your daughter was a beautiful women and i am very saddened by your loss.

I had the pleasure of working with Tavira when I worked at Algonquin Careers Academy. I just found out about her passing and am so sad to hear this news. My condolences to the Harford family. Tavira was such a light and such a joy. I'm sorry for this loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Jean-Pierre

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. Our thoughts are with you.

Like Linda Smith from Bruce Central, I have wonderful memories of a beautiful girl with many gifts. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this most difficult time.

My heart is so broken to hear about Tavira, i'm so sorry she had to leave. we have a group of close friends who are all in shock about her passing and regret not seeing her again...

Tavira, I was blessed to know you. My thoughts and prayers to the family and friends.

Hi Ruth ,Peter, Dustin & Familys We are so sorry to hear about Tavira,it,s been a long time since we where together riding horses all i can see is Tavira a young child happy and having fun , we covered a lot of ground together , showing and had a lot of laughs my heart goes out to all of you , Marie & Jim

Today our heart are heavy as we lay to rest a wonderful woman. God has taken you home Tav. Spread your wings and fly little girl. I’ll Lend You... A Child of Mine “I’ll lend you for a little time, a child of mine, ‘Christ said. For you to love the while she lives, and mourn for when she's gone. It may be six or seven years, or twenty-two or three, but will you, ‘til I call her back, take care of her for me? She’ll bring her charms to gladden you, and should her stay be brief, you’ll have her lovely memories of solace in your grief. I cannot promise she will stay--since all from earth return, but there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn. I looked the wideworld over, in search of teachers true, and from the throngs that crowd life’s lane, I have selected you. Now will you give her all your love, not think the labor vain--nor hate Me when I come to you and take her home again. I fancied that I heard them say, “Dear Lord, Thy will be done.” For all the many joys she’ll bring, the risk of grief we’ll run. We’ll shelter her with tenderness, we’ll love her while we may, and for the happiness we’ve known, forever grateful stay. But should the angels call for her, much sooner than we planned, we’ll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand.” Debbie Wilson, Amanda Jason and Christine Trepanier.

Pete and family, please accept my condolences in the loss of your daughter, my thoughts are with you through this very difficult time.

Ruth, Pete, Dustin and family I don’t even know where to begin in expressing how sorry that I am for I your loss and what you are all going through. It breaks my heart that we cannot be there to support you in your time of need or to say our goodbyes to Tavira. But please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you during what I know will be the most heartbreaking day ever. Tavira tomorrow is the day that the world has one last chance to say goodbye to such an amazing person, a person that I was blessed enough to have the chance to love and grow up with, we had many years of amazing memories as we conquered the world and all of it’s amazing wonders with our inquisitive little minds together when we were young. I will never forget all of the memories that I got the chance to make and share with you Taffy, and being only a couple of weeks apart in age and growing up so close together made me think of you more as family like a cousin and best friend. One major regret that I have always had especially now is letting life get in the way and allowing us to lose touch, I only wish that we had still been as close as we once were and that I could have been there for you in your time of need and for that I am sorry. I love you Tavira and I can’t believe that you are gone. :’-( I will never forget you sweetie. REST IN PARIDISE SWEET ANGEL

My sincerest sympathy to Ruth, Dustin, Peter and family. It is impossible to understand what you are going through right now, as the loss of Tavira deeply saddens me. Tav was a true gift to anyone who had the fortune of knowing her. There is so much to remember her for, including her charm, her smile, her laugh, her beauty, her intelligence, her ability to truly listen, and her caring heart. I wish I could have seen more of her over the last few years, but the time I did have with her will be cherished always.

Dear Ruth, Peter and family: Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers at this most difficult time. Sincerely, Muriel and Gary.

Goodbye my dear friend. You were and always will be a beautiful soul to me. The world is a darker place when people as strong and caring as you disappear. I will always remember you as I knew you, that happy intelligent and beautiful woman who shared the same road as me and wasn't scared to tell me how it is. I will always remember those long drives we took and the long chats that went with them. The drive we took to Valens and the cooler we found for the ice. lol. The dark place I was at last summer and the kind words of advice you gave me that made it bearable. My thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family Tavira. I will miss you always
