It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Antonia Johanna Maria Benjaminsen (Den Otter) at the age of 96. She is predeceased by her husband of 61 years, Arnold. Toni was the proud mother of Gary and Michael, Oma to Brandon, Grace, Amanda and Abigail and mother-in-law to Paula. Toni will be greatly missed by her sisters, many nieces, nephews and friends in the Netherlands and Canada. Toni and Arnold emigrated from the Netherlands in 1958 after World War 2 and eventually settled in London. She earned her Masters degree from the University of Toronto and worked at the London District Roman Catholic School Board as a teacher and French Coordinator until her retirement. She was an avid reader, traveler who spoke 5 languages and an adventurous spirit who always sought out new things to learn. May God bless her and Jesus guide her on her journey to everlasting peace and love. Due to restrictions as a result of COVID-19, no service will be held. Those wishing to make a donation in her memory are asked to consider Doctors Without Borders or the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
