Obituary

Eileen Elizabeth Sanderson (nee Farley) in her 93rd year.

Our beloved mother, nan, aunt and friend has passed away. In our sadness, we are reminded of how much we miss her but relieved she is finally with her very loved husband (Sandy), sister (Olive) and son (Neil).

Mom was born in Birkenhead, England and had many stories of her early life as she grew up, especially during the war. Mom came to Canada, not to pursue an adventure or a dream of a better life, but to be with Olive. Never have two sisters loved each other as much or been better friends. We miss her ever present hot pot of tea and the best chips in the world. Mom loved us all, but it was as nan that she was at her very best.

She will be forever missed by Mark, Peter and Susie. Further, by Bill Buckton, her grandchildren—Farley, Brent (Kristy), Brittany, Shane, Luke, Kate, and Clare—and her great-grandchildren—Cooper, Max, Kyleigh, and Bronz. She would have been so proud of these kids. What a legacy she left. Her loyal and kind friend, Brenda Murray, who holds a special place in our hearts, misses her dearly as well.

We would like to thank all the staff at the Southampton Care Centre for their kindness towards our Mom over the past number of years. We are especially grateful to our sister, Susie, for her care and love to our mother during the many years as a primary care giver.  Sue, as you have done with others, you stepped up and leaned in – we are all blessed.

Mom was a devout Catholic and gained great strength from her relationship with God and the Church. A private family Mass will be held in May. Please pray for her!

Mom it’s finally time to rest. We love you so much!
