Unexpectedly at Victoria Hospital in London on Thursday, July 28, 2022, Wanda Jean (Chute) DeBrabander, of Tillsonburg and formerly of Straffordville passed away at the age of 82 years. Beloved wife and best friend of Robert “Bob” for 60 years. Proud and loving mother of her two daughters Margo Schooley and Heather Chick. Cherished grandma of Todd and Craig Schooley and Cameron and Nathan Chick and great-grandchildren Ethan, Ally, Dawsyn and Emmett Schooley. Predeceased by her parents Madison and Juanita Chute and her sister Lorraine Moore.
Wanda was born and raised in Straffordville and was employed as a bookkeeper. Wanda loved to bake and share it with family, friends and neighbours. It was an amazing day for her grandsons (and their roommates) when a “Grandma Wanda” care package arrived at their dorm. She was kind and giving and family was everything to Wanda. Her favourite times were when family was together. She also loved to volunteer at the Straffordville (Bayham) United Church.
