It is hard to believe that Maureen left us five years ago. Rest in peace dear friend.

I remeber how joyful and excited she was as she was preparing for her wedding. She said that she knew that this came to her late in life but that it was the perfect reflection of her and Michael's love for each other. 
Judi Ritter

Thinking of you and all the moments we shared together.

Just to add - This is Sarah -  I did place flowers on the bench with a picture of the Lord Jesus Christ after her passing.   Much love, Sarah.

This is for the family of Maureen.  My name is Sarah, I live off Duncairn park and I am a parishioner of St. Bonaventure parish.  I was blessed to be present at the time of Maureen's passing.  I prayed for her quite intently, and asked for Angels to be with her and for the Lord Jesus Christ to be with her as well.  I am so sorry for your grieving and I send my condolences.  I would like very much to contribute to a charity of choice.  I pray for all of you and send my love and pray for your comfort.  May Maureen be blessed and may her soul be at peace and with God and the Lord Jesus Christ which I know she is.  Much love to all of you, and may you be blessed.  Be comforted, Much love, Sarah Day. sarahdaymiller@gmail.com  

I met Maureen at church at St. Bonnies.  She also went to the Andrews to say the Rosary . Maureen was devout, kind and funny . She was friendly also . 

We all brought something for the breakfast table  after Rosary . She brought her husband’s homemade French bread. Homemade bread is so good . Maureen was so generous . 

Now that we are home , I have learnt to bake bread . Thanks to Maureen and her husband . 

Will miss you Maureen . 

Maureen and I met in Grade 13 at Riverdale Collegiate in Toronto  in 1961. We soon became best friends. Six years later, she was my Maid of Honour at my wedding.  Over the years, our lives went in different directions, but we always stayed connected.  Funnily enough, we both retired from teaching  in 1998 and from the same school in Toronto.    I  will remember Maureen  for her positive outlook,  cheerful disposition  and  her love of  brightly-coloured clothing.  Maureen always looked great. Rest  in peace, Maureen. I will miss you.                                                                                                                          

It is wonderful to read so many lovely remembrances of and tributes to our dear big sister Maureen.
It is heartwarming to know that, from her oldest friends from the 60’s, to her newest ones from Winfield Terrace and scores of others from her teaching career, her travels, her faith & neighbourhood communities, and Michael’s friends and family, her wonderful attributes touched you all in so many positive ways. And your sentiments echo what  her family has known about Maureen all our lives.
 She was well and truly loved!
Eileen  (Talley) Sherlock

A beloved big sister to her three brothers and three sisters. A kind, caring, compassionate friend, adventurer, and teacher who loved her family. We will miss your sweetness. Rest In Peace Moee. 

We will miss our big sister.  I loved that someobe wrote:  Maureen carried Joy with her.  That about sums her up.  

I met Maureen when we were both in our 20’s. We attended
The same church and were friends for many years until I
left  Canada to get married and to live in England. My deepest
Sympathy for her sudden passing.

We are grateful to Maureen who instructed our Friday afternoon 
bridge.She had enthusiasm,  lots of patience and a senseof humour.
Maureen was a friend to all and will be greatly missed.

Michael, we are very sorry to hear about Maureen's tragic accident.  Maureen will be sadly missed by all her friends at Windfield Terrace.

There is nothing I can say to express how sad I am that you are gone. Just know you were loved and will never be forgotten.
I loved having you in my French class, and I loved learning bridge from you. 
Tu vas nous manquer  

Michael, Jim, Shiela ,Eileen Cathy and John,

 It is terribly sad,   Maureen was a true and constant friend 

since 1963.        Please accept my condolences.

I too will miss her.                        Larry

Maureen was truly one of the sunshiniest faces around. Always lively, a generous soul. Her passing has eclipsed the heart of Windfield Terrace. Michael, my thoughts are with you. Maureen, tu nous manques.💙

Dear Michael, I am so sorry to hear of your loss.  Maureen was such a lively, outgoing lady and I always enjoyed our visits with you both.  I will keep you and the family in my prayers at this difficult time.

Michael, we are so very sorry about this terrible tragedy. We didn’t get to know either of you well but we hear such wonderful stories. Our last memory is looking up at both of you enthusiastically celebrating health and support workers on pot banging night. We think of both of you every day. 

John and Sandra

My deepest sympathy to MICHAEL and family at the tragic loss of MAUREEN.She had a kind and generous disposition with a beautiful smile.She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

Dear Michael, we were truly shocked to hear of the sudden loss of your wife Maureen she goes a long way back in our family. Pat and I met her in the mid 1960's and has been a staunch and cheerful friend since then.
When our children were growing up she always showed up at Christmas with presents for all  the kids. My last email from  her was only about 6 days ago telling what she was doing locked up like the rest of us.
She will be truly missed by all of us. I'm sure it will be the same for her family: Jim, Sheila, Eileen, Cathy, John, Michael.

Bill and Pat Bradley, David, Stephen, Peter, John and Paul.

Michael and family...I am so sorry to hear about
your loss. 
 Maureen was a special lady
whom everyone enjoyed and loved.

Please accept my sincere condolences.

Sorry about that. 

Love and virtual hugs, Marilyn

Dear Jim, Sheila, Eileen, Cathy, John and Michael.

A ray of sunshine went behind the clouds and the bright candle lost it's light on the shocking and devastating news of Maureen's passing.

Maureen was an extremely caring and thoughtful person with a beautiful mind so much like Auntie Marg.

I am sure Auntie Marg and Uncle Staff opened their arms widely to embrace Maureen.

Love, hugs and prayer,

Marilyn

Dear Michael, please accept my heartfelt condolences for your tragic loss. Your family and Maureen's are also in my thoughts at this time.
I will remember Maureen as a thoughtful, loving friend with ever open arms.  She will also be remembered for her many activities
within the condo, including teaching bridge to rank beginners like me
Know that my thoughts are with you through this terrible time.

Maureen was such a ray of sunshine and brought light into every room she entered. Her positivity and laugh always  made me feel so comfortable. Her humour was unmatched - she made me laugh so hard in French Club. My heart goes out to Michael and her/his family. 


Maureen carried joy with her. She loved being with others through her enjoyment of travels, books, the arts and bridge playing. On Friday afternoons, Maureen, the ever patient teacher was the heart and soul of bridge sessions.
We mourn her loss. Condolences are sent to Michael and all the family.
Rest In Peace.

Such a tragic loss. We will miss her friendly smile, optimistic attitude and zest for life.  May the love of friends and family, carry you through your grief. 

I am deeply saddened .  Maureen, as a dedicated and enthusiastic teacher, introduced me to the game of bridge. I will always remember her fondly. 
My sincere condolences to Michael, his family and to Maureen's family.
May she find sweet rest and peace!

I was devastated and heart broken to hear about Maureen's passing.  She was generous, cheerful, happy, warmhearted, full of compassion, thoughtful and very loving.  A great friend and sister.   My sincerest condolences to Michael and his family and to Maureen's family.  Maureen, tu vas me manquer et manquer à tous le monde!

May she Rest In Peace.
Richard and Pat Bingham.

Maureen was a bright light who loved life. She was so outgoing, engaging with people everywhere she went while totally embracing all life had to offer.  She also enjoyed celebrating and arranging get-togethers . She will be missed beyond words. Nancy & Peter Everill

Maureen was the girl with the big smile, who sailed into the room like a breath of fresh air. She had a positive  look on life. And a caring soul. You were taken too soon, leaving a big hole in your family and in the Windfield family

Maureen was a wonderful neighbour.  Always happy and bubbly and such a big part of the Windfield Community.  Maureen was taken way too soon and will be sorely  missed.
