Obituary of Margaret Cecilia Powell

POWELL, Margaret Cecilia We are sad to announce the passing of Margaret Cecilia Powell (nee Sinnett) in her 83rd year at the Houses of Providence in Toronto, on December 24, 2005. Born in Gaspe, Quebec and a long time resident of Kingston, Ontario, Margaret was predeceased by her loving husband Frank William (Bill), in 1984. They met in Gaspe during the Second World War and after their wedding in 1945, spent some twenty years raising their young family on armed forces bases across Canada and making many wonderful friends along the way. Margaret spent her last five years in Toronto close to her grateful family, including daughter Judy, and son in law Michael, and granddaughters Hilary and Natalie; also daughter Susan, and son in law Rodney, and granddaughters Kristin and Lauren. She will also be sadly missed by son Brian, and daughter in law Myra, and granddaughters Erin and Laura Lee of Saskatoon. Also left behind are son Richard and his family. Predeceased by her brothers Albert and Lewis, Margaret is also lovingly remembered by her sister Mary Bond, and many nieces and nephews. A wonderful mother and special friend and favourite aunt to many, we celebrate her life and always remember her generous and fun-loving spirit. We are especially thankful for the extraordinary care provided by the wonderful staff at Providence. A service will be held to celebrate her life at the HUMPHREY FUNERAL HOME - A.W. MILES CHAPEL, 1403 Bayview Avenue (south of Eglinton Avenue East), at 11 o�clock on Thursday, December 29. Donations in Margaret�s memory may be made to the Alzheimer Society Of Metropolitian Toronto, 2323 Yonge Street, Suite # 500, Toronto, ON M4P 2C9.
