It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our loving and proud Mother and Oma, Maria Johanna Oppers-van Helvoort, at the age of 95. She will be welcomed in heaven by her husband Peter, her son Charlie, her grand-daughter Patricia and many more family and friends.
A Mother holds her children’s and grandchildren’s hands for a short while, but holds their hearts forever. You will forever be in our hearts, Martin and Petra, Victoria and Ryan, Nathan; Debbie (Charlie), Michele and Justin, Mark (Patricia); Agnes, Sarah, Zac; Pete and Jeannette, Jason and Francesca, Megan and Dan; Rick and Wendy, Peter and Marta, Jeff and Laura, Andrea, Adrian, Carson and Graydon, Mike and Kelly; Betty and Kevin, Devin and Katherine, Sean and Melanie, Greg and Emily, Kristen.
A private ceremony will be held on Tuesday, December 22 2020 with a celebration of life to follow when bubbles are burst and hugging is allowed.
Special thanks to the kind caregivers at the Barrieview Retirement Home.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to your local Alzheimer Society.
