neighbours and former colleagues. She was predeceased by her husband
of over 30 years, Ted Guthrie (2019), her mother Helen
Chilingarian (2018), her brother Dr Archie Chilingarian, MD ( 1993 ),
aunts and uncles Mariette and Zaven Simonian (2001), David Davidian

Growing up in Guelph, where Emily attended Laurin Avenue P.S,
King George, John F Ross and Centennial CVI, she was not only was an
outstanding student but also was excellent at public speaking and
music. She won numerous provincial awards in these fields, graduating
high school with honours and as class valedictorian. She continued her
academic excellence in University where she earned her B.A, M.A and
B.Ed from Guelph, McMaster and U of T. It was in university where she
met Ted, the love of her life. She then started her teaching career
and excelled in the same outstanding fashion. She was one of the best,
well organized and most respected teachers at Meadowvale High School.
When Ted’s health declined, she was a tremendous source of
support while still teaching. She retired from the job she loved
earlier this year to be a full time caregiver for her 91
year old father. Sadly, it all ended suddenly on November 23rd.
Cremation taking place. If desired, memorial contributions
