Weston, Doris (nee Schausberger)

With deep sadness we announce the peaceful passing of our family matriarch in her 63rd year. Doris was the beloved wife and best friend of Gary. Loving mother of Justine (Robert), Adam (Sophia), Stewart (Martha) and Canadian mother to the lads from Scotland; Scott, Craig, Dave (Nicola) and the late Andy Kerr. Oma will be missed by her grandchildren, Marcus and Emily who adored her. Doris was predeceased by her parents Rudolf and Herta Schausberger and sister Marilyn. Survived by her older sister Renate. Doris was an avid reader, crocheter, painter and overall crafter. She loved candles, holiday decorating, music, her parents, her husband, her kids, their spouses, and her grandchildren. She loved her trailer at the French River, music of all kinds, cooking and baking. She was a Schausberger to her core. We will all miss her smile, her laugh, and her warm embrace. Thank you to Dr. Shaw and the team at Juravinski for their continuous support. Special thank you to Margaret’s Hospice for the love and kindness they showed not only to our mother but our father Gary as well. A Celebration of life will take place at their residence at a future date to honor Doris.

Britz, Kelvin “Kelly”

June 23, 1961- July 3, 2024

Kelly Britz of Hamilton, Ontario passed away peacefully at home, in his sleep. Kelly was born and raised in Dundas, and was the youngest of five children. Kelly spent his formative years in Dundas attending grade school and high school in town before moving to Hamilton to open a business. He was a very skilled fisherman and took great pleasure in it over the years. Kelly was also a wizard with tools and made it his career for a short time in his life. Life wasn’t always easy but Kelly did it his own way and abided by his choices. Kelly had the best laugh in the world! So infectious and so original! Kelly was predeceased by his loving Mother and Father, Theresa and Clemens Britz; his sisters Florence, Darlene, his brother Ronald and sister-in-law Maureen (Moe) Britz. Kelly leaves behind his loving wife Lori Loucas. They were everything to each other and best friends throughout anything life sent their way. She will find comfort in their memories of happy times and will carry his love with her. Also, left to mourn their Father, are Kelly’s precious children Katelyn and Tyler. Kelly is survived by his big brother Del who will remember him always with love. He will also be sadly missed by a legion of nieces and nephews who will hold him in their hearts forever. Kelly wished to be cremated and there will be no service. If you wish, a donation may be made to Cancer Assistance Program, Hamilton or Margaret’s Place, Dundas.

PAGE (nee Walker), Luella (Lou)


Passed away peacefully on June 26, 2024 at Margaret’s Place in Dundas. Loving wife of the late Robert (Bob) Page. Predeceased by her sister Barbara. Proud mother of Chris (Nina), Carol, and Sandy Gillies (Grant). Adoring grandmother of Taylor (Greg), Matt (Ryley), Jake (Jade), Adam (Lily) and Quinten. Lou was a lifelong resident of the greater Hamilton area and obtained a Bachelor of Arts from McMaster University as a mature student. She was an avid reader and loved learning new things, often making her way through several books a week. She enjoyed travelling and was dedicated to her daily ‘brain training routine’ of crosswords and complex Sudoku puzzles. She was an incredible cook and baker, but loved nothing more than eating Twizzlers red licorice (and not having to share!). Lou was a skilled bridge player and enjoyed her weekly card games with many friends, including Jean, Mary, and Heather. The family extends their sincere thanks to the amazing staff and volunteers at Margaret’s Place for the wonderful care and support they provided throughout her end-of-life journey. At her request, there will be no visitation or service. Cremation has taken place. We love you Grandma Lou!! You will be forever in our hearts. XOXO. In lieu of flowers, please do something nice for someone today in Lou’s memory.
