Pansie Holmes
With sadness in our hearts, we announce the passing of Pansie
Holmes (Shean) July 1, 2021, in London Ontario in her 95th
year.
Born in Stratford Ontario to James and Marjorie (Crawford)
Shean, she was the last surviving sibling. She was pre-deceased by
brothers Wesley, Murray, James and Wayne and sisters Doris and
Gail.
She leaves behind her loving husband of 69 years, Donald
Holmes. She met and fell in love with him in Stratford Ontario, and
they were married there October 27, 1951.
Always together, she travelled extensively in her younger
years with her husband and made wonderful friends in Florida where
they spent every winter. She had a lot of fun line dancing
over the years and listening to country music. She had a heart of gold
and family was always foremost in her thoughts.
She had a close relationship with her two daughters Debra
Bishop (Allen) and Janette Holmes (Gerry).
Her greatest joy was spending time with her family. She
travelled once a week from London to Oakville to be with her grandsons
Eastman and Cullen in their formative years and she travelled to Nova
Scotia every February for the birthday of her twin grandsons Andrew
and David. Five great-grandchildren: Charli, Anna, Riley, Drew and
Blair called her Nanny Pan, and they were lucky to all have visited
her in London in 2019.
She kept up with computers and enjoyed getting the latest
family news, photos and FaceTime conversations on her
iPad.
Our family would like to send special gratitude to all of the
doctors, nurses and home care workers who helped Mom stay in her own
home this last year and during her hospital stays at Victoria Hospital
in London.
Donations in Pan’s memory may be made to the London
Health Science Foundation, in London Ontario.
A family service will be held at a later date, due to Covid,
at Avondale Cemetery.
Online condolences may be made through Logan Funeral Home
(519-433-6181) by visiting their website at
www.loganfh.ca.
A tree will be planted, by the Logan Funeral Home,
as a living memorial to Pansie Holmes.
