Passed away peacefully at home with her daughter by her side on Monday, May 8, 2023 at the age of 99. Predeceased by her loving husband, William (2008).

Great grandmother to Brianna, Chase, Carson, April, Agnes, Heidi and Thora. Great-Great grandmother to Noah. Long time member of Dundas Baptist Church.

Mom passed away suddenly but peacefully, in the early hours of May 10th, 2023 at the age of 96 years young. She was just shy of her upcoming 97th birthday on July 17th. She is now reunited with her loving Husband Mel, and many Family and Friends that have gone before her. I can only imagine the jubilation experienced when they all meet again. Marjorie had a feisty personality which may have contributed to her longevity and she was mentally sharp right up to the end. Her Family was her whole world and she was an awesome Grandmother (Nan) and Great Grandmother. She leaves behind her son Brian, daughter in law Christine, and her daughter Colleen; her 4 Grandchildren, Julie (Ron), Jason (Nadine), Jamie (Jenn) and Matthew. She has 4 Great Grandchildren, Jesse (Cleo), London (Zach), Caleb (Brooklyn), Chelsey and Taylor. Minnie, her grand-dog, will miss the volume of treats given to her when visiting Nanny.
Many thanks to all those who looked out for Margie along the way. We know she really appreciated it. Special thanks to the kind and patient Paramedics who often visited Mom. You are truly Angels.

With the heaviest of hearts, we announce the peaceful passing of Elizabeth May Ward (Stafford), in her 89th year, on May 2, 2023. Loving mother of Suzanne Weatherdon (Lindsay) and Nancy Gordon (Glen). Devoted Grandmother of Grange, Matthew, Julia and Gillian. Beloved sister to Michael Stafford (Huguette) and Cheryl Hanrahan.

Born on June 29, 1934 in Sherbrooke, Quebec, Betty moved with her family to Dundas. She finished high school while scooping ice cream at the family store, Stafford’s Variety. After high school Betty attended Park Business College and was an active member in the Theta Kappa Sigma sorority.
Married life saw Betty active in the Junior League of Hamilton but her priority was always her daughters. Wherever we moved she always ensured we were settled and happy.
Betty kept connected to Dundas, organizing family trips so we could remain close to our cousins and she could visit with her best friend Pat.
Betty was an avid reader and a talented knitter, knitting over a thousand hats for the charity “The Little Hat that Grew.”
After retiring from a fulfilling career at the VON, she divided her time between BC and Ontario so she could be involved with her grandchildren.
We are ever grateful for the exceptional care she received at Carrington Place Retirement home in Ancaster and to her caring physician Dr. Shane Guckian.
Cremation has taken place. Friends will be received by the family on Saturday May 13th between 1-3pm at Turner Family Funeral home, 53 Main Street, Dundas.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the VON or the charity of your choice
