Parcourez la nécrologie de Queenie Wiens Saturday July 6th 2024 résidant dans la province Ontario pour le détail des funérailles.
The family of Queenie Clara Marguerite Wiens (nee Stokes) sadly announces her passing on July 6, 2024 just a month short of her 100th birthday on August 5. She is predeceased by her parents John and Ellen; her siblings Charlie, John, Rosemary and Fred; her husband Ernie, and her son Bryan (Judy). She will be missed by her two sons Barry (Leslie), Bob (Judy) and her daughter Brenda. Queenie is also survived by several grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Though Queenie was born in London, England, her family moved to Bournemouth on the south coast of England when she was very young. She lived there until she joined the Royal British Air Force in 1943. It was in the Air Force that she met her soon-to-be husband Ernie Wiens a handsome young soldier in the Royal Canadian Air Force. They became engaged on D-Day, June 6, 1944 and married that October. In 1945, Queenie took a ship to Canada ahead of her husband who was still deployed in England. Her wish was that her children be born in Canada and her first son Bryan was born not long after her arrival in her new home in Hespeler (now Cambridge) Ontario. Ernie returned from England several months later.
Queenie embraced her new life and was a dedicated mother and a tried and true friend to many. She was an active member of St. James Anglican Church where she held several volunteer roles and even today she is fondly remembered as Choir Mother.
The family would like to thank the staff at Trinity Village Care Centre for their excellent care.
Interment has taken place at New Hope Cemetery in Hespeler.
«The more you love the more you’ll find,
That life is good and friends are kind,
For only what we give away,
Enriches us from day to day.»
