Sheila Goodwin Obituary
Sheila Kathleen (Campbell) Goodwin
January 7th, 1952 – December 15th, 2024
Sheila Goodwin died on December 15th at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto, surrounded by family. She leaves her partner of 53 years George Goodwin, her three sons Christopher (Kimberley), James (Susan) and William (Elizabeth), her brothers Maurice (Anne) and Colin, and her devoted sister Star (Stephen). Sheila also leaves her beloved grandchildren Nigel and Blythe. She was predeceased by her eldest brother Bruce.
Sheila was born in Saint John, New Brunswick to Sam and Stella Campbell. Recognizing the importance of education, her mother encouraged Sheila to follow in her brother’s footsteps and study at Mount Allison University, from where she graduated in 1974.
At the beginning of second year university, she met George Goodwin. They were inseparable for 53 years. Sheila took mothering very seriously: Chris, Jamie and Will were her life’s work and her proudest accomplishment. She never forgot her upbringing and approached all endeavours from a social justice perspective.
Perhaps the greatest joy Sheila experienced in her final years came from her two grandchildren, Nigel and Blythe. The obvious bond between grandmother and grandchildren was her reward.
Sheila was one of those quiet, steady, committed people blessed with the gifts of good judgment, common sense and deep love of family. She did not squander these gifts but used them wisely and diligently. She rescued a broken 17-year-old boy in 1971 who became her husband, helpinghim turn into the man he is today, writing these words. She bore three wonderful sons, now building their own families. She ended up having the daughters she always wanted when her sons married and brought them home. She was blessed with wonderful grandchildren.
Sheila’s funeral will be held at the Church of St. Timothy, 100 Old Orchard Grove, Toronto on Tuesday, January 7that 11 am. A reception in the church hall will follow. You can view a livestream of the service by clicking here.
