Isobelle Shirley Winslow-Spragge July 31, 1918 – August 11, 2016 Isobelle was always willing to share her wisdom and kindness and will be remembered for her sweet spirit and loving ways. She was born in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia and cherished her Maritime roots. Beloved wife of Edward for 69 years, she was predeceased by him in April 2015, and leaves us now to rejoice and be with him again; also predeceased by her parents, Alden and Stella Norman, and her sister Marjorie. She was the dear mother of Susan, Joanne (Paul Akehurst) and Deborah. Isobelle is also survived by her grandchildren: Michael Antonucci (Lindsay) and great-grandsons Owen and Dylan; Gina van Waard (Christian Veillette) and great-granddaughter Maisie; Marjorie van Waard (Joshua Smith) and great-grandson Zachary; and loving members of our extended family. Family and friends were a source of interest and joy throughout her life. Isobelle was a dedicated volunteer at Almonte General Hospital and a faithful member of St. Paul’s Anglican Church. Arranging Altar Guild flowers and reading scripture during services (especially enjoying “midnight” service on Christmas Eve), were important and pleasant tasks. She was a supreme organizer at home, with an artistic flair for design and interior decorating and an ability to orchestrate the very best family dinners/social celebrations. Above all, she had the ability in the world around her, to create harmony. A private family funeral service will be held. The family extends a special thanks to all doctors, nurses and friends who have provided comfort, care and joy in Mum’s final years. Final arrangements are entrusted to Gamble Funeral Home, Almonte, ON. In memory of Isobelle, memorial donations may be made to St. Paul’s Anglican Church, Almonte, ON K0A 1A0 or to Fairview Manor/Almonte General Hospital. Condolences & Tributes: www.crgamble.com
