Obituary for Margaret Virginia Mason (Baker)
MASON, Margaret Virginia
Oh, we're all travelling down that long winding road that ultimately leads
us to the end.
For MARGARET VIRGINIA MASON that road sadly ended September 20, 2017 in
Northumberland Hills Hospital, Cobourg, Ontario. This followed an extended
life of 101 years, 4 months.
Mom was born May 2, 1916 in Baltimore, Maryland, to Harold and Pearl
(Durham) Baker. Harold died of pneumonia shortly after her birth. She and
her mother then moved back to Toronto. Life had many challenges, including
the Depression.
On June 2, 1939 Marg and Howard (Bud) Frederick Mason were wed and went on
to a further 46 years together. Bud passed away in 1985 following a
lifelong career with the Bank of Commerce, ending as Manager of the Bloor
and Yonge Branch, in Toronto. Together they raised a family of 5: Richard
(Jill), Paul (Carol), Lynn (Ted Passmore), Don (Barb) and John (Kathi).
A tireless, dedicated and principled mother, she devoted herself to family
first and seldom sought the spotlight. As an extended family, we wish to
recognize and praise Marg for her dedication, courage and devotion,
throughout her lifetime.
She lovingly leaves 12 Grandchildren (Alison, Andrew, Bonnie Christopher,
Dylan, Jason (deceased), Julie, Kate, Kyle, Robert, Scott, Susan), along
with 9 Great Grandchildren (Andie, Ashley, Cameron, Graydon, Hannah,
Henry, Mason, Owen and Victoria).
Visitation will be held on Monday, from 10:30 - 11:30 a.m., September 25, at the Brighton Funeral Home on Main Street in Brighton, Ontario.
The family would like to thank Dr. Xi, the staff of both Rosewood Estates
(Cobourg) and Empire Crossing (Port Hope). A special thank you to the
Restorative Care and Palliative Units of Northumberland Hills Hospital and
to Lynn and Ted Passmore for their respectful and compassionate care.
Burial will take place at Park Lawn Cemetery, Bloor St. West, Toronto at
3:00 p.m. followed by a private family celebration of Marg's life.
Rest in Peace.
