FOLEY, (Theresa) Jane (nee CAMPBELL)   -
September 20, 1944 - July 25, 2024

We are saddened to share that Jane passed away last Thursday in the hospital, peaceful and surrounded by family.

She is survived by husband, Michael; children, Christine, Kevin, Bridget and Jeremy; siblings, Margaret Ann, Mary Lorraine and late brother, Kevin; aunt, Mary Ann; her grandchildren, Emmalyn, Madison, Matthew and Owen.

Jane achieved her RN certification at St. Joseph's hospital, upon graduating Lawrence Collegiate, then in midlife heroically passed the refresher course, going on to work at Mississauga Hospital, then a doctor's office.

In her private life, she was a dedicated mother and friend, always the first to offer a lift to appts, a meal or an ear.

Jane was an accomplished baker, voracious reader and dog lover. She loved nothing more than a lively cocktail party with friends, an opportunity for laughter and catching up - especially at the family cottage.

A wake will be held August 6, 4-8 p.m. at Glen Oaks Funeral Home (3164 Ninth Line, Oakville) and funeral August 7, 11 a.m. at St. Matthews (1150 Monks Passage, Oakville).

BROWN, Ivor Lincoln  -  Born in Seaford Town, Jamaica, West Indies to Edward Brown (Braun) and Ethel Topper, with siblings, Violet, Rudy, Eustace, Ivy, Bernard, Hubert (toddler death), and Ruth. oved to Canada in 1957 when he was 21.

Worked in London, Ontario as a male nurse, then obtained his Bachelor of Theology in Alberta, worked as a minister in Ottawa and Brantford for a few years, later worked at Henderson (now Juravinski) Hospital as an orderly, then as a porter at Hamilton General Hospital, eventually becoming head porter before his retirement.

He was a deacon for years at the Hamilton Mountain Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) church.

He loved to sing and did so often in public and alone. He was the family's genealogist, researching the immigration of his European ancestors to Jamaica.

His lifetime of family research resulted in a 500 page book of his findings.

Once he retired, he moved to the town of Cobalt and joined the Old Age Club where he was frequently asked to sing.

Attended the Haileybury SDA church, enjoying the fellowship there and delivering sermons (and eulogies) when he had opportunity. His heartfelt singing frequently moved the listener to tears (e.g. "Ten Thousand Angels" - Ray Overholt).

He was a loving husband to Joan (who survives him) and kind father to Trevor. Ivor will be missed.
