Myra Chadwick Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 2, 2014.
CHADWICK, Myra Rose (nee Hickey)
In her 93rd year, Myra passed away in her sleep at St.Joseph's at Fleming Nursing Home, Peterborough on Saturday, August 30, 2014, cherished mother of Heather Thompson (husband Guy) of Peterborough, Ontario, Harley Chadwick (wife Constance Couch) of Kingston and Audrey MacDougall (husband Gary) of Yellowknife, N.W.T. Grandmother of Niall Davidson (wife Leigh Trusler), Colin Davidson (wife Martha), Haley Chadwick (partner Geoff Alguire), Debbi Chadwick Small (husband David), Karla Reid (partner Gerry Ovington), Kelsey, Ian and Alexander MacDougall. Great-grandmother of Benjamin, Noah, Sadie, Megan, Kyle, Tyler, Haley, Dalton, Quinton, Parker, Angelina, Mya and Lincoln. Predeceased by her parents James Hickey and Annie (Abbott), sisters Phyllis and Luella, brothers James, Charles and Elmer. Myra was born and raised in Darnley, Prince Edward Island. During WWII she married William Chadwick, moved to Winnipeg and eventually settled in Montreal to raise their young family. Myra moved to Peterborough in 1973. One of her greatest joys in life was being able to sing in the Trinity United Church Choir, which she did for over 30 years. Myra was a wonderful baker-her kitchen was filled with the scent of rising dough, freshly baked bread and cinnamon rolls which were in turn sold to raise money for the local United Church. Myra was also an avid alley, carpet and lawn bowling champion and an active participant at Activity Haven. She worked for MDS labs for 18 years. After Myra retired, she remained active in the community, travelled extensively and enjoyed many great times with her grandchildren.
Memorial visitation will take place on Saturday, September 6, 2014 from 2:00 -3:00 p.m at COMSTOCK FUNERAL HOME & CREMATION CENTRE, 356 Rubidge Street, Peterborough, Ontario, 705-745-4683, followed by the Celebration of Life Service in the Chapel.

Heather, Guy, Martha, Colin, Noah, and Sadie,

So sorry to hear of the loss of your mother/grandmother/great grandmother. You were blessed with many wonderful years with her, but losing someone you love is always difficult no matter how long you have them. May you find comfort and strength in the memories she has left with you and the lessons she has taught you all. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Much Love,

Thinking of you as you celebrate the life of Aunt Myra. I visited her in Peterborough a few times since moving to Ontario. She was always happy to reconnect and to talk about the good ol' days in PEI. I remember visiting with her and my Nanny Bryanton (Luella) and Aunt Hazel when they were all in PEI for summer vacation as a child and seeing her out at the Cabot Reach.
With sympathy,

We are thinking of all of you and words fall short of expressing our sorrow for your loss. Please accept our heartfelt condolences.

We feel lucky to have many fond memories over 33 + years of knowing your Mom. She was a wonderful person, inside and out, and she will be remembered fondly for her smile, love, and amazing energy. She looked and acted much younger than her age and she was remarkably fit and fun. She embraced all aspects of life - physical, mental, social and spiritual - and we have all learned much from her positive example of dignity and grace. Hold on tight to your Mother's memories, she is there, watching over you.

Love always,

Karen, Randy, Patrick and Robert

Thinking of you all as you celebrate the long and beautiful life of a wonderful mother and grandmother. It was wonderful to see Aunt Myra on Prince Edward Island soil, alongside her dear sister Luella (Mom), during 'The Bryanton Family Reunion' in 2007. Aunt Myra was delighted to greet and catch-up with so many friends and relatives from the Darnley and Spring Valley area.

Sadly we say goodbye. With the earthly unravelling of the family chain, we must rejoice as one by one all are linked again into eternity....happy are they to now keep watch over their flock by night.

God bless you all as you gaze heavenward and see the extra twinkle in the sky this night.

In sympathy with our cousins,

Love from: William (Billy) and Doreen Bryanton
