Root, Fern Louise
Loving Memory of
Fern Louise Root
With heavy hearts, we share the passing of our beloved mother,
Fern Louise Root,
who left us in her 91st year
on February 25th, 2025, at Trenton Memorial Hospital.
Fern was predeceased by her devoted husband of 45 years, Don,
her parents Allan & Ethel Davis, her brother Russell, and her dear companion Ron Benway.
She leaves behind a family who cherished her deeply: daughters Jill Markland (Paul) of Trenton and Rosalie Root (Bill) of Castlegar, B.C., sons Cameron Root (Sandra) of Wellington and Victor Root (Marilyn) of Wellington.
She was a loving grandma to six grandchildren, five great-grandchildren, and one great-great-grandchild.
Fern was born and raised on her family farm on Huyck’s Point Road.
Together with Don, they ran a dairy farm for many years.
A woman of many talents and passions, Fern found joy in traveling, cooking, sewing, knitting, reading, and most of
all she loved playing euchre. Her generosity shone through her handmade quilts, which she lovingly donated to the M.S. Society,
a cause close to her heart.
In the past year, Fern made many dear friends at Crown Ridge in Trenton,
where she will be deeply missed. Her family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the staff for their kindness and care.
Mom, you will be forever in our hearts. Rest in peace.
Funeral Service will be held at the Wellington United Church
on Monday, March 3rd at 11:00 AM followed by a luncheon.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Fern’s memory to the M.S. Society or
The Wellington Storehouse Food Bank would be greatly appreciated.
