Eldersley corner. She actively participated in community activities, watching sports, going to
fowl suppers and social events, treasuring her visits with each person she might run into
throughout the countryside.
She had a love for music, sang in the United Church Choir for many years; she and Glen
would travel annually to Hostfest & other nearby music festivals for many years, together
they watched several local performances and kid concerts where friends and family
performed.
Although not a big adventurer she enjoyed her travels: visiting family, going to the lake, bus
tours around North America, a trip to Hawaii, a tour to Portugal, Spain and Morocco, plus
countless trips with Glenn in the 5th wheel.
She loved her family dearly, and embraced them each with knitted blankets and other items
until she was no longer able. Had a great memory for not only songs but poems and
limericks and always enjoyed a good joke or story.
The family would like to thank the staff at New Market Manor for their care and compassion.
