Catherine Winnifred Gould
1925-2019
Peacefully at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, on Sunday,
November 24, 2019, the death occurred of Catherine Winnifred Gould, of
Charlottetown, PE, (formerly of Tignish PE and Nappan NS) age 94
years. Beloved wife of the late Norman Frederick Gould, having
predeceased her in 1965. Loving mother of Gail (Joseph) Collins and
Norma Lee. Cherished grandmother of Tara Marie Collins and Mitzie
Gallant. Beloved only survivor sibling, her sister, Reta Connick of
Amherst NS..Predeceased by her husband, Norman; parents – John P. and
Catherine (Knox) Ellsworth and brothers Joseph, Preston, Albert,
Patrick, Wilbert, Pius and sisters, Mary Settle, Colette Kennedy,
Levina Lutterel and Florence Belliveau. All through her life, mom was
our strength, our wisdom, our guiding hand, our comforter, our
resource centre and our friend as well as being both mother and
father. Having lost our dad at a very young age, mom, who always had a
very large but soft heart for children, continued on in a tradition
that she and our dad had started by giving a warm and loving home to
many foster children. After moving to PEI, Mom became an avid
volunteer with the Kidney Foundation. She always gave of her time –
whether it was to help a neighbor who was sick or knit for the
hospitals, schools and those less fortunate in Guatemala or to do a
Kidney fundraiser. And play cards – oh how she loved to play cards.
There was never a time when her hands were idle – knitting needles,
crochet hooks or a pack of cards. Mom, we loved your dearly in life
and you will remain in our hearts forever. Resting at Hillsboro
Funeral Home, 2 Hollis Ave., Stratford for visitation Friday, November
29, 2019 from 4:00- 6:00 p.m. Funeral mass will be celebrated on
Saturday, November 30, 2019 at St. Pius X Church, Charlottetown, at
11:00 a.m. Catherine’s cremains will be interred alongside
her husband in the Saint Charles-Nativity Roman Catholic Cemetery in
Amherst NS at a later date. As an expression of sympathy, memorial
donations to the Kidney Foundation, PEI Chapter would be
appreciated.
