Memorial Donation
Winnifred Marie White (nee Mullaly) passed peacefully away at Bay St. George Long Term Care centre on July 24th, 2020 surrounded by her family. She was born on April 16th, 1928 in Northern Bay, Conception Bay to William and Elizabeth Mullaly.
She had a short career as a teacher prior to meeting the love of her life Kevin White. Together they raised 13 children. Winnie had a kind and patient nature and she was a devoted, loving mother who cared deeply for each of her children. She was a skillful woman, very good at cooking, knitting, and sewing. How she found time to do all these things we will never know.
Winnie loved to sing and shared her talents generously throughout the years while her children were growing, exposing them to all styles of her musical appreciation. In her later years her favorite things to do were to sing and to see her family and loved ones. Winnie also had a a great sense of style in her dress and liked to put her best foot forward. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her and remembered for her gentleness and loving ways.
Winnifred was predeceased by: husband Kevin; parents William and Elizabeth Mullaly; and her eight siblings.
She is survived by: children: Gary (Rhonda), Barbara (Fred), Brian (Deborah), Brad, Roderick (Barbara), Vince (Lori), Marina (Aiden), Kevin (Pauline), Desmond (Joyce), Annette, Arlene (Mark), and Collette (Dwayne); She will be sadly missed by her 40 grandchildren, 27 great grandchildren, and special friend Jack Rose; as well as a large circle of extended family.
In light of Covid-19 restrictions, there will be a private service at St. Stephen’s Parish followed by an interment at Hillside Interfaith Cemetery. As expressions of sympathy in lieu of flowers, donations in Winnie’s memory may be made to Sir Thomas Roddick Hospital Foundation or to the Bay St. George Sick Children’s Foundation.
The family would like to express special thanks to Winnie’s personal care worker Doris Curnew and to all the staff on North Wing of the Bay St. George Long Term Care centre for their support and help over the past two years.
