Sarah Joan “Sally” Thomson
1933-2021
THOMSON, Sally – born Sarah Joan McKittrick;
October 19, 1933, joined her late husband Ellis Thomson
(2018) passing peacefully in her sleep at Cambridge Memorial Hospital
after several weeks of rapidly declining health. Mom never
thought she would be the one left alone and after dad’s
passing she struggled to find her way, although she took great
pleasure in her family, nothing could fill the void or heal her loss
after almost 65 years of marriage. These last several
months, as her health deteriorated, she pined to reunite with Dad
finally getting her wish, passing peacefully in her sleep, on June 10,
2021. She leaves behind daughters Debbie (Mike
Milicevic), Jennifer (Harold MacKinnon) and Diahanne (Doug Johnston),
grandchildren Marc (Megan) and Scott(Liana) MacKinnon,
Jessica (Cam) and Meghan (Ousman) Milicevic, great grandchildren
Tucker, Eberlie, Blakely and Baylor MacKinnon, her chosen fourth
daughter Karen Sararas, Alan and Amanda Johnston, Carla
Johnston, Pieter, Chelsy and Ivy Johnston, sister-in-law Sheila Ross
(the late Bill), brother-in-law Alex “Aj”
Thomson (the late Brenda), special cousins Alan and Donna Corre and
Ken and Barb Root, as well as many nieces and nephews and
cousins-in-laws. Predeceased by her mother Marjorie Ann
McKittrick (nee Root), father John(Jack) Whtye McKittrick, brother
Stephen(stillborn) and her in-laws Shirley and Clifford
Thomson. Cremation has taken place, family and friends will
gather, when possible, to remember and celebrate her life and legacy
of family. Her daughters would like to thank all those who
provided care and support to mom, Liz, Lorna and the PSW team at
Fairview Mennonite Independent living, her family physician Dr. Beshay
and his team Lisa and Cathy, Kanti and Sejal Medix pharmacy,
Tara and Kelly LHIN Care Coordinators and last but not least her
advocates and caregivers at CMH, Maria Boyes, Dr Swekla and all the
nurses and PSWs on Med 3C and TCU/Rehab 3B unit who travelled with and

angels. If so desired, donations may be made to Fighting
Blindness Canada, Cambridge Self-Help Food Bank, Cambridge Humane
