Obituary for
Margaret Lois Evans (Quinney)
Evans, Margaret Lois Grace (Quinney)
At peace on December 12th in her 85th year Margaret was reunited with her pack; Smokey, Max, Trottwood, Satchmo, Hobbes and Ben. Predeceased by brothers Howard, Cyril, Fred, Rich (Evans) and sister Bernice. Margaret will be lovingly remembered and missed by sisters Aida, June and Marie (Evans) many friends, nieces and nephews.
Grateful to have inherited her often macabre sense of humour Margaret will be deeply missed by her children Michael, Tara, Mathew, Michelle, Tim and grandchildren, Mackenzie, Mikaila, Morgan, Ty, Scout and Rio.
Recently Margaret reflected that she had spent her life searching for something she could never define. Those who love her most believe, in death, came the knowledge that what she was looking for was inside her all along; strength, joy, LOVE.
At Margaret’s request there will be no funeral services, “everyone who came to my 80th birthday gets a pass so there would be low turn-out at my funeral”. In defiance her family will throw a party in her memory at a later date.
The family would like to thank Dr. Mark Essak and the nursing staff at NHH palliate care unit for their compassion, kindness and support.
In lieu of flowers the family is suggesting donations to Northumberland Hospice Care Centre: www.northumberlandhospice.ca or cheques to NHCC mailed to 15 Rose Glen Road, Port Hope ON, L1A 3V6 or visit rossfuneralchapel.com
