HENRY, Elizabeth "Elaine� (n�e P�quegnat) Born February 23, 1919 in Stratford, Elaine died on Thursday, December 29, 2005 in Toronto, after a courageous battle with complications due to renal failure. Devoted wife of David and loving mother to Janice. Doting Mormor to Christian and Catherine, kind mother-in-law to Morten. She was a remarkable, gentle lady whose boundless generosity of spirit touched everyone she knew and loved. Her love of words made her a voracious reader, a wise intellectual, a lover of trivia, and passionate for a good joke. She was also a talented painter. Throughout her entire lifetime she remained dignified, gracious, modest, dynamic, astute and gallant. Her gift as a beautiful role model has left an imprint on all she met and cared for.

"�where I glow with the modest good I did with my life, grateful this gorgeous world will be here for others when I am gone.� "�So (she) passed over, and all the trumpets sounded for (her) on the other side�� "And He will raise you up on eagle�s wings, Bear you on the breath of dawn, Make you to shine like the sun, And hold you in the palm of His hand� We love you past infinity.
