Obituary of Catharine Yeomans

YEOMANS, Catharine (Kay) Simpson (nee Williams) 1925-2012 The family of Kay Yeomans is sad to announce that she passed away early on Tuesday, April 10, 2012. Kay is predeceased by her beloved husband, Donald R. Yeomans and her daughter, Susan. She is survived by her brother, Ron Williams of Ottawa; her three daughters, Patty Yeomans, Nancy Love, & Jane Charlesworth; her sons-in-law, Jon Love and Mark Charlesworth; grandchildren, Erica Danyluk Berlin & Andrew Danyluk, Christie Love Thomas & Jason Love, and Catharine & Amanda Charlesworth; grandchildren-in-law, James Berlin, Jeff Thomas, and Samantha Love; and great-grandchildren, Scarlett & Jamie Love. A graduate of the University of Toronto (1947) who believed strongly in giving back to the community, Kay was Past President of the May Court Club of Ottawa. Her life inspired the values that her children all hold dear: caring, compassion, selfless giving, and above all, a deep love of family. Kay's warm, cheerful disposition, coupled with her enduring sense of humour, made her a joy to be around, and we will miss her dearly. The family will receive friends at the HUMPHREY FUNERAL HOME A.W. MILES CHAPEL LIMITED, 1403 Bayview Avenue (south of Davisville Avenue) from 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. on Thursday, April 12. A private family funeral will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to The Hospice at May Court, 114 Cameron Avenue, Ottawa K1S 0X1, CanadaHelps.org.
