In Loving Memory
ANTAYA, Mary Jane (née Bondy)
In her 94th year, peacefully at home on Oct. 10, 2018, with her family at her bedside after a brief illness. Predeceased by husband Lucien Antaya (1988), and her parents Noah (1980) and Antoinette Bondy (1925). Loving mother of Annette Blanchard (Bruce 2018), Ken Antaya (Debi), and Mariette Girard (Randall).

Our mother was a very vibrant woman and constantly on the go.
She will be fondly remembered for her smile, her continuous “Joie de Vivre”, her sense of style and her colourful comments.
Mom had many interests throughout the years. She was an avid bridge player with many groups in Amherstburg and LaSalle. She also enjoyed golf (when able) and shopping (always!).
Our mother had many friends she truly cherished.
In one of mom’s final moments she mentioned one special friend saying “Claire is not going to like this”.
She was a long time member and past president of the Chummettes, K of C Council 5642 as well as a member of the Red Hat Ladies.
In lieu of flowers, the family would welcome contributions to a charity of your choice.
Family and friends will be received at St. Joseph Church River Canard, 9399 North Townline Road on Saturday, October 13, 2018 from 9 a.m. until the time of Funeral Mass at 11 a.m. Interment to follow at St. Joseph Cemetery River Canard.
