Obituary for Florence Christina McQuillan (Poots)
McQUILLAN, Florence Christina, Oct 6, 1936 - Jun 29, 2017
Florence McQuillan, of Island Park Residence (Campbellford) and formerly of Brighton, passed away peacefully into the arms of her Saviour, on Jun 29, 2017 in her 81st year. Left to treasure her memory are her husband and best friend, George Edmund; daughter Lorraine (Joe), son Mark (Diane), and son Karl (Liz); grandchildren Grant, Alison, Peter, Kyle, Eric, Megan and Grady; and 5 great-grandchildren.
Born in 1936 in Belfast, Northern Ireland, Florence emigrated to Canada in 1963 with her young family. She worked as an RNA for many years in Mount Albert and Newmarket; loved and cared for her family with all her heart; and rejoiced in all the many blessings that befell them over the years. Florence enjoyed a long, full retirement travelling with Edmund, residing at their lake-front property in Minden, and for 20 years in Brighton by the Bay. Family and treasured friends left to mourn her will remember Florence as a gentle-souled woman of faith who adored her family; loved to travel (as much for the food as the sites); and read voraciously. She will leave a hole in the hearts and lives of all who knew her and those she loved.
Special thanks to the caring staff at Island Park Residence; Dr. A. Minuk; Dr. K. Parks; Northumberland CCAC Caregiver and Palliative Support teams; and Saint Elizabeth's Palliative Care.
A memorial for Florence will be held at the Fellowship Christian Reform Church, 204 Main St., Brighton, on Friday, July 7, 2017 at 2 o’clock, reception to follow in the Church Hall. Donations to the Salvation Army or Bibles for Missions would be gratefully acknowledged by the family. Arrangements in care of the Brighton Funeral Home (613-475-2121). Condolences, donations or tributes may be made at www.rushnellfamilyservices.com. Proverbs 3:6
