1927 - 2024

Vera passed away peacefully during the evening of May 21, 2024 while being comforted by family members.

She will be sadly missed by her husband of 76 plus years, Pat, and her 3 children; daughter Patricia (Jim) Power, son Bryon and son Tom.

She will also be sadly missed by her 6 grandchildren, her 9 great grandchildren, and her many nieces and nephews in Canada and abroad.

Born in Georgetown, British Guyana, Vera came to Canada in 1949 along with her 1 year old daughter to join her husband Pat who had come to Canada shortly before to obtain employment and a place to live for the new family.

After spending 3 years living in Toronto, the family and their 2 children moved to Frenchmans Bay in 1952… her 3rd and final child was born a few years later. Vera loved her life in Frenchmans Bay and remained in the area for next 72 years!

Always being the mainstay of the household she devoted her life to her family and was a wealth of love and affection for each member.

In addition to being an avid reader of books, she excelled at the art of baking yummy treats, there was always lots of excitement on the faces of her children when butter tarts were in the making… they were naturally consumed promptly!

She truly was a wonderful wife and mother! Honoring Vera’s request, there will not be a funeral service or celebration of life.
