Parcourez la nécrologie de Elizabeth Joyce Macaskill Wednesday January 22nd 2025 résidant dans la province Ontario pour le détail des funérailles
Elizabeth (Joyce) Macaskill (93 years)
Passed peacefully in Kingston, Ontario on January 22, 2025.
She was born on July 8, 1931, to Elizabeth and Percy Jones in Toronto.
Joyce earned degrees at York University and the University of Toronto, and became an avid educator in Ontario’s elementary school system, where she was dedicated to developing the minds, spirits, and hearts of innumerable students before her retirement in 1989. She last taught at Firgrove Public School in Toronto’s Jane and Finch area, where she mentored students from a range of socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds.
Following her retirement, Joyce became a staple in the lives of her daughter Beth, son-in-law Ehsan, and grandchildren Adam and Sara, of whom she was tremendously proud. She drew immense joy cheering on Sara and Adam at countless hockey rinks and baseball diamonds in Ajax and the Greater Toronto Area, attending dozens of holidays over Thanksgiving and Christmas, where she always led the family in pre-dinner grace, and playing with her great grandson Ayden in her final years.
A staunch supporter of the Toronto Maple Leafs, Blue Jays, and Buffalo Bills, Joyce was also a passionate reader of fiction and nonfiction, loved playing cards (especially Euchre), and was a well-known Suduko expert to family and friends.
Joyce will be missed by Beth, Adam (Brittany), Sara (Michael), great grandsons Ayden and Avery; her nephew John (Lynn), niece Susan, and their families; and by her friends and staff at Tapestry in Etobicoke.
She is predeceased by Ehsan, with whom she shared a special and loving bond.
Joyce is now reunited with dear siblings Kay, Phyllis, Patricia, and Bill, and her parents.
Private arrangements have been entrusted in Wartman Funeral Home, Kingston, ON. If desired, donations in memory of Elizabeth made to Nellie’s (nellies.org) would be appreciated by her family. Condolences may be forwarded online through wartmanfuneralhomes.com
