Sandra (nee Blaine)
Of Pakenham, Ontario, in her 86th year.
Dear wife to John for 65 years. Missed by her children Doug, Sean (Heather), Drew (Laurie), Donald, and Meghan. Proud “Oma” to Allison (Dave), Seamus, Caitlin (Luc), Quinlan, Gavin, Darren, Jessy, Rylie (Dan), Willow and Charlotte; and great-grandmother to Charlie, Finn and Wesley. Predeceased by her parents Donald and Norma (nee Parlee). Survived by her siblings Heather (Peter), David (the late Florence). Aunt to Kristin (Eddie), Alexandra (John) and Heather-Anne (Jonas). Missed by her dogs Rufus and Rosie. Remembered by her Thursday Morning Muffin Ladies, her Queen’s Golden Girls (Phys.Ed. ’62) and her many friends in the community.
Sandra was a constant centre of friendship, family and activity, supporting adventures and excellence in all manner of pursuits. Wherever she went a gathering of things would begin happening and people would be invited to join. She lived a wonderful life.
Donations in memory of Sandra may be made to the Almonte General Hospital Fairview Manor Foundation.
A special thank-you to all the staff from the Fairview Manor for their compassionate care and support.
