Elizabeth (Betty) Lenore MacRae Harwood was born July 9, 1927 in Hamilton, Ontario (Galt was home) and passed away January 7, 2021. She was preceded in death by her husband Norman, her sister Dorothy Kani, and her brother-in-law Edward.
Betty was an RN for 45 years in Ontario and B.C. She was close friends with fellow RN Brigette Schmidt and her husband Werner, who included her as family after her husband died. She was also a beautiful knitter with family being the recipients of many sweaters and children outfits. Betty was much loved by her two nieces Susan Hsieh of Flint, Michigan and Robin Kani of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and their families.
Many thanks to the wonderful caregivers at Suncrest Retirement Community the last few years of her life, who made her feel truly at home. Also, much gratitude from Susan and Robin to Betty’s devoted and cherished friend Julie Clark, who cared for Betty and handled all of her affairs for so many years. Betty loved and was best friends with Julie’s cat Lulu.
