Gilbert, AnitA

Surrounded by the love of her family and fortified by the rites of her faith, Anita (nee Donnelly), passed away on Saturday, February 11, 2023, at McNally House Hospice, in her 89 th year. She is now reunited with her beloved husband John (2003). Dear mother of Jane (Guy) and son Mark (Christine), and cherished grandma of Dominique (Sheldon) and François. Predeceased by her mother Anne and father John, brother Patrick (Sally) and sister Kathleen (Bill). Her memory is a blessing to family and friends at home and abroad. She is especially missed by her constant (furry) companion and walking buddy, Nikki. Mom was a force of nature. Born and raised in Workington, Cumbria, England she was a champion swimmer, and accomplished vocalist. Her early training at Moorfields Eye Hospital in London, England paved the way for a healing career as a nurse and teacher. She remained passionate about music all her life, an avid chorister and choir leader, an amateur theatre performer, she could still belt out a show tune in her final days. Visitation at STONEHOUSE-WHITCOMB FUNERAL HOME, 11 Mountain Street, GRIMSBY (905-945-2755) on Friday, February 24, 2023 from 4-7 p.m. A Service of Remembrance will take place at St. Andrew’s Anglican Church, 156 Main Street West, Grimsby, on Saturday, February 25, 2023, at 11 a.m. We are deeply grateful for all those involved in Mom’s circle of care. We give thanks for the family of faith at St. Andrew’s Anglican Church, and the compassionate team at McNally House Hospice. In lieu of flowers we ask that you remember these two caring communities with memorial contributions. www.smithsfh.com

On February 6, 2023, our mother, grandmother, and good friend Louise, passed away gracefully and peacefully, shortly after beginning her 93rd year.

Louise and her twin brother Lyle (predeceased) were born in Milestone, Saskatchewan on January 8, 1930, to parents Morris and Georgina Broadfoot.

The family, including her older brother Dean (predeceased), eventually settled in Tisdale where she made many lifelong friends. In 1956, Louise moved to Grimsby, Ontario to start her family with her husband Bob Frostad where she became an engaged and active member of her new community.

She also became an active member of her new community. After Bob’s passing in 1972, Louise married Phil Belanger and the two continued to operate and manage their entrepreneurial interests throughout the Niagara region.

Outside of work, Louise was an avid curler, golfer, bridge player and world traveler and in her later years, volunteered extensively at the Grimsby Benevolent Fund (GBF) Community Services.

She leaves behind her sons: Chris Frostad (Susan), Scott Frostad (Katie), Geoff Frostad, and Colin Frostad (Lisa) and her eight grand children, Leigh Anna, Carter, Ethan, Houston, Robert, Galen, Jake and Sydney.

Louise will also be greatly missed by her stepdaughters, Karen Hatton (Garth), Linda Belanger and Sandy Belanger (Tom Smith) and their families.

Cremation has taken place and a private iternment is planned for a later date.

INGRAM, Ronald

It is with sadness that the family of Ronald Ingram announce his passing on Monday, February 6, 2023 at West Lincoln Memorial Hospital. Left to mourn is his wife of almost 65 years Lorna Ingram (nee Brodie); his daughter Lorraine & Ron’s card shark partner Garry Gibson; son Kenneth; his grandchildren Kristy (Dave), Stuart, Ryan (Kerstin) and Amber and his great grandchildren Ethan, Jared, Austin and Brodie. Ron is now reunited with his beloved daughter Karen who predeceased him in 2014.

Ron was proud of his service in the Royal Electrical Mechanical Engineers (REME) and continued his camaraderie with fellow veterans in many Legions throughout the years. In 1967 Ron, Lorna and their two young daughters immigrated to Canada from Scotland and the gang was soon joined by Kenneth, our first Canadian.

Ron, the consummate gamesman loved his chess games with Tom, especially the games he won and the euchre games with his partner Garry. The wins came with bragging rights which he savoured.

Singing in various church choirs, acting and writing for the stage for Little Theatres in Bramalea and Oakville were his passions. We could always tell when he flubbed a line or went off key because his family was his live-in audience.

Ron will be missed by family in Scotland, friends in Florida where many fun winters were spent, and along with friends here in Canada who became like family.

Thank you to all the doctors who helped to care for Ron through his cancer journey and the staff at West Lincoln, especially nurse Paul for his compassionate care during his final hours. In lieu of flowers the family would appreciate you making a donation to the Salvation Army. Fare thee well, thou first and fairest! Fare thee well, thou best and dearest!
