Eva Sarosi
September 3, 1927 - July 18, 2023
It is with deep sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Eva Sarosi, late into her 95th year at Uxbridge Cottage Hospital.
Eva was a beloved wife of the late Bela, mother to Huba (Angela).
Grandmother to Thomas (Christine), Megan (deceased), Andrew and Miranda.
Eva was also blessed to see her first great-granddaughter Jade.
Born and raised in Budapest, Hungary, Eva and Bela fled after the Hungarian Revolution in 1956 to Canada and started their lives in Uxbridge, Ontario, where they opened a shop and raised their son.
Eva kept occupied tending to her beloved gardens and cooking.
She will be remembered as stubborn and sweet. She will be missed. She is loved.
The family would like to thank Butternut Manor and the Uxbridge Cottage Hospital, and special thanks to Dr. Jensen and Dr. Munn for all their love and care.
A private graveside ceremony will be held.
Eleanor Ann McEvoy
MAY 5, 1958 – JULY 12, 2023
Passed away peacefully with her loving family by her side July 12, 2023 at the age of 65.
She was the loving wife of Tom McEvoy for 40 years and beloved mother of David McEvoy (Natalie and Lily Rose Aronowicz) and Benjamin and his wife Riley McEvoy.

Eleanor started her career in healthcare at Belleville General Hospital as a Ward Clerk.
After meeting and falling in love with Tom she moved to Hampton and began working at Lakeridge Health Oshawa. Here she would make a lasting impact on the labour and delivery unit and make many lifelong friends over her 35 years of service.
Eleanor was deeply committed to the Hampton chapter of Scouts Canada for many years. She became a Scout Leader, which lead to so many cherished memories with her sons and other family friends. Eleanor was also a devoted daughter to her mother Helen.
She would spend many of her days with her mom, between various trips and outings, enjoying their time in the garden, and attending worship at Eastside Community Baptist Church.
Eleanor's pride and joy in life came from the time and experiences she shared with her family. Her love and devotion enriched the lives of those she cared about, and she will be greatly missed.
The family wishes to extend a heartfelt thank you to the staff at Lakeridge Health Bowmanville 2nd Floor for their exemplary care and compassion.

Ernie Wessely
1947 - 2023
For much of his adult life Ernie had struggles with his health.
Early today (July 15, 2023) that struggle ended peacefully, and he is now at rest.
We met in high school and have been together for over 50 years. Our fifty-second anniversary would have been in August.
Like any relationship we had our ups and downs, but shared many wonderful travels camping in trailers, cruising (mostly the Caribbean) and of course travelling on trains- his favourite mode of transportation.
From our honeymoon trip through the Rockies to our many steam excursions and our 28-day trip through the United States, trains were always a big part of our travels. I will miss that call to adventure that never seemed to leave him.
He was a husband, father, and grandfather, as well as a Scout Leader, trip supervisor for numerous class trips and excursions, and for many years a Big Brother. His long-time best friend, Larry Taylor, will miss their trips to McDonalds for coffee, and debates about news of the day.
He was an irascible individual, set in his ways and expressive about his opinions and we will all miss him.
A informal gathering of friends and family will be held Tuesday, July 25 from 5 pm to 8pm at the McEachnie Funeral home Family Centre. We welcome shared memories from any who wish to give them.
In lieu of flowers (which he never liked) a donation in remembrance to your favourite charity is welcomed.

Jean was a lifetime active member of The Greenbank UCW and of The Uxbridge Seniors Citizens, where she enjoyed shuffle boarding, lawn and alley bowing. She travelled extensively with Cliff on many tours and loved to talk about the trips.

Emile (Bill) Lionel Joseph LeBlanc
Went to be with the Lord on July 5th, 2023, in his 93rd year, at Lakeridge Health Oshawa.
Emile leaves behind his beloved wife of 64 years, Edith (Stone).
He will be sorely missed by his children: Charlie (Devon), Stanley (Melody), Linda McGill, Jerry (Cheli), and Richard (Kristine).
He was the proud grandfather to 12 grandchildren, and 8 Great Grandchildren.
He is also survived by his nephew Leo, and nieces Adette, Stella, and Freda.
He is predeceased by his parents Arthur and Sara LeBlanc, his siblings Gerald and Laurianne, both of Moncton, Bernadette (Dartmouth), and twins Sara and Alphee (Moncton).
As well as his in-laws Charlie and Alice Stone.
Emile is a retired General Motors employee of 43.3 years. He was also an avid Euchre player with the OSSC and loved bingo and bowling too. His favourite hockey team was The Montreal Canadiens.
As a young boy he played hockey in Moncton while growing up on a dairy farm. That was not the life he wanted.
He drove busses in Moncton until he heard that General Motors was hiring so he and ten of his friends came to Ontario.
Emile worked as Machine Repair. Emile, speaking only French, had to learn English quickly when he met Edith.
While he enjoyed travelling back to New Brunswick to visit his homestead and to see his friends, he loved the life he made in Ontario.
Emile loved watching his children and grandchildren play sports. He was a man of few words, but he was very generous.
