Adelaide was born in Sydney Mines on Jan 20, 1936, to Thomas and Isabel (Scott) Thomson.
Left to mourn her is her husband Wallace; son Allan (Erica Weatherbie); grandchildren Nicholas, Curtis, Hannah, Emily and William; her daughter-in-law Pam King; as well as brothers James (Violet), Roy (Bernice), sisters Jesse (Mel) Covey and Wendy Thomson; many nieces, nephews and her special friend and walking companion Josephine Clark.
Besides her parents, Adelaide was also predeceased by her son Steven “Glen” King and sister Isabel Erickson.
One of Adelaide’s proudest accomplishments, outside of the birth of her boys, was when she graduated from nursing in 1957. Upon her graduation she immediately found work as a nurse at the old Harbourview Hospital in Sydney Mines. Adelaide was admired for her friendliness, sense of humour and her sincere, fun-loving pleasure in being with others. She will be missed more than words can say.
A funeral service will be held at 2:00pm on Wednesday, July 3, 2019, at Fillmore & Whitman Funeral Home, Sydney Mines. Following this her cremated remains will be laid to rest in Brookside Cemetery.
