Obituary of Elly Alexander
Elly Alexander died peacefully on Thursday, December 19, 2024, at 11:00 p.m., after a short illness. She resided at Sunnyside Seniors’ Services in Kitchener, ON. Elly was the beloved wife of Robert Alexander for almost 50 years and loving mother of her children Helena Tarback, Martin Tarback (dec.) and Carol Tarback. She was loved by her brother Viggo Stoltenberg-Hansen of Malmo, Sweden, and niece Sara Stoltenberg with daughter Elisabeth.
Elly was born on August 6, 1937, at Ystad, Sweden, living a few blocks from a church built in 1200 and across from a short-term home for Sweden’s “War King” Karl the XII. In 1958, she completed gymnasium with the “Latin Line” (emphasizing literature and languages, including Latin) at Ystad. Her classmates thought of her as the Intellect. After that, she moved to Stockholm to continue her studies at Stockholm University. There she met and began a lifelong interest in theatre.
At the age of 22, she came to Canada after deciding to follow the family’s move to North America. Her talent for writing and background in languages eased the way to work in law firms, including at the Ontario Masters (who determine the rules for divorces) while raising her small children. Later she used her large empathy and interest to act in Little Theatre as well as to assist British actor and director, Maurice Evans. Her interest in people and relationships gave rise to putting in 3,500 hours on the “Suicide Line” and some years spent doing palliative care at St. Mary’s Hospital in Kitchener. On a visit back home, she acted under Ingmar Bergman for a short time, in several plays, in one delivering a difficult one word opening line: a Scream.
A memorial service will be held at a later date at Knox Presbyterian Church, Waterloo. More information about her eventful life will be available via Erb & Good Family Funeral Home, 171 King St. S, Waterloo, www.erbgood.com.
