After training as a nurse at Vancouver General Hospital in the late ‘40s, Daphne went to London for a couple of years of nursing and travel. She returned to nursing at VGH and married John Elvidge in 1951. They settled in North Vancouver where they raised 5 children – Tod (Ann), Cathie (Ken), Dave (Jodi), Ken (Karen) and Jennifer (Doug). The love Daphne felt for her family, friends, 9 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren is multiplied by the love we all felt for her.
A celebration of Daphne’s life will be held at 2:00 PM on Saturday, October 26, 2019 at Boal Chapel, 1505 Lillooet Road in North Vancouver.
Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared at www.MeM.com for the Elvidge family.
