Mom was born in Mindemoya and grew up on her parent’s family farm in Billings Township where she exercised all aspects of farming at a young age. She expressed to us how much she enjoyed those days of her life. Mom was a home maker and was kept busy with her children and her extended step-children. She later was blessed with several grandchildren where each had a special place in her heart. Spending the last few years at Manitoulin Lodge, she enjoyed her daily exercises, Bingo, Music, and most of all her Cribbage games with family, in which she won mostly every game. Mom also enjoyed sharing family dinners at Thanksgiving and Christmas. She will be sadly missed by all members of her family. A private family burial will take place at Gordon cemetery on Friday July 24, 2020. As expressions of sympathy, memorial donations may be made to the Angel Bus or the Alzheimer’s Society. A graveside service will also be held for Ron Brandow. Arrangements entrusted to the Simpson Funeral Home, Gore Bay. www.simpsonfuneralhome.ca
