Margaret Scott (née Kay) slipped away peacefully, with family by her side, on March 21 st , 2025.
Mom was 94 years young, and is mourned by her daughters, Beth (Peter), Heather (Terry), and Wendy (Jim), grandchildren Dylan (Melissa), Erica, Skylar (Cody), Mackenzie (Dustin) and great-grandchildren Stevie and Bobby. Margaret was predeceased by her brother Derek George Kay.
Born in Montreal to Charlotte May Varley and Clifford Kay, Margaret spent a portion of her childhood in England before returning to Canada as WWII began. She remained deeply connected to her English roots which fostered her love of all things British from The Royals to tea, teacups, Corgis, and English gardens.
A devoted mother and grandmother, Margaret was an enthusiastic supporter of their activities, sports, and competitions. She was an active community member, generously volunteering with Girl Guides of Canada and assisting with charitable causes such as the Heart & Stroke Foundation and the Cancer Society. Her civic engagement included involvement with the Canadian Census, participating in political campaigns, and serving at polling stations.
A talented seamstress, she lovingly created beautiful skating and prom dresses as well as cherished Halloween costumes. As a retail sales associate, Margaret’s warmth and extensive knowledge of fabrics made her a valued and trusted advisor, with customers seeking her out for her expert guidance.
In her retirement years, Margaret relocated close to her family in Brockville. She later moved into the Wedgewood Retirement Home, where she charmed residents and staff alike. Margaret was affectionately known for her strong independence, a trait she ensured to instill in her daughters. Her tenacity and determination helped her with the challenges of living with Parkinson’s for two decades.
Mom will forever remain in our hearts and thoughts. We are deeply grateful to the staff at Hilltop Manor in Merrickville for their kindness, care, and compassion during her final days.
Margaret’s life will be celebrated on Saturday, May 31st , 2025, at Irvine Funeral Home, 4 James Street East, Brockville. Visitation from 2:00 to 3:30 pm, followed by a tribute.
Interment to take place at a later date, where she will then be laid to rest with her parents in Montreal.
