Marie passed away peacefully on Wednesday, December 3rd, 2021 in her 91st year. Predeceased by her husband George. She will be missed dearly by her family, friends and neighbours on Chatham Street. Marie worked as an accountant for many years at McGregor Clinic and taught Sunday School at St. John the Evangelist. She had a caring heart, adored her many pets, enjoyed traveling, and loved her plants and garden. Marie was sweet and feisty right until the end. Her friends and family would like to thank the wonderful staff and caregivers at Wentworth Lodge these past few years and especially in her final days. As per Marie’s wishes, there will be no public memorial.
Passed peacefully the morning of December 2nd, in her 87th year, at Juravinski Hospital after a courageous battle with cancer. She will be greatly missed by her children: Diane Lassaline (William), Michael McClure (Heather), her grandchildren Samantha, Andrew, Joshua, and Amy. Also survived by her sister Dorothy Sipocz (John), her brother Larry Hayhurst (Joan), and her many cousins, nephews and nieces. Mom’s favourite hymn was Blessed Assurance which continues, “Jesus Is Mine. Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine.” Rest peacefully, Barbara, in the fullness of God’s divine glory and love. There will be a Time of Remembrance held at a later date. In lieu of flowers the Canadian Cancer Society would gratefully accept your donations.
