Alma McCarthy
1925-2020
Unselfish and kind,
none on the earth your equal we’ll find,
honourable and true in
all your ways, loving and faithful ‘til the end of your
days,
honest and liberal,
ever upright, just in your judgement always right,
loved by your friends
and all whom you knew,
one in a million, that
person was you.
Our mother passed away
in her home surrounded by family on October 12, 2020 in her
95th year.
Cherished wife of
Barney, waiting 37 years for her to join him. Mother of Steven, Debra,
Peter, Jeanette and Susan. Beloved mother-in-law to Bruce, Glenna,
Martin and John. Eight beautiful grandchildren and eleven (soon to be
12) great-grandchildren.
Born in India, a proud
Anglo-Indian, mum emigrated to Canada to provide a better life for her
family, for which we are so profoundly grateful.
After retiring from a
long successful career as Executive Assistant to major corporations
and governments she circumnavigated the globe not once but twice to
visit friends and new places.
Mum was born on
December 24 and always made Christmas special for her family and
friends. It is said, to be without friends is a serious form of
poverty, mum was a millionaire.
Strong, independent,
loving and kind, a wonderful role model for all who knew her. A woman
of substance.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Alma McCarthy 19252020..
