Mrs Thelma Dunbar Philbrick
Sherbrooke – Avis de décès
The family of the late Thelma Dunbar Philbrick announces with profound sadness her passing at the Hotel-Dieu Hospital in Sherbrooke, Québec on August 28, 2021. She was the daughter of the late Percy Dunbar and the late Matilda Hutchings from Melbourne Ridge and Sherbrooke. Married to the late Gordon Philbrick.
Thelma leaves in mourning her children, son Percy Craig and daughter Kerry (Sid), as well as her two treasured grandchildren Nathaniel and Kaitlyn Patton (Matthiew), who were the sunshine that warmed her heart.
Thelma also left to mourn Beverly Reed a cherished niece, who always called our mother ‘Ma Tante’. Thelma also left in mourning several nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
A special mention goes to Linda Vogas who was more family than friend, also Ross Woodard (predeceased), and Dena (Chase) whom Mom cherished and cared for like her two other children. Without them her family would not have been complete.
Mom died as she lived, quietly and with dignity. A dedicated wife, mother, grandmother. A true and vital mentor to many in her personal life and in her community. Membership and Service to the Plymouth Trinity United church for almost 75 years. As Dena Chase stated all who knew mom were blessed, as we have lost a fine example of humanity.
Many thanks for the exceptional care given to her by the 6th floor palliative Care Wing D. of the Hotel-Dieu hospital. Also to Dena Chase without her help this obituary would not have been so well done.

Elkas Complex, 4230 Bertrand-Fabi, Sherbrooke, on Saturday, september 18, 2021 from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m., followed by the funeral service in the chapel at 2:00 p.m., the Dr. Rev. S.
