Emily Westelaken
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Emily (nee Calvert) after a brief illness. Beloved wife of Wes for 52 years, they shared a love and devotion to each other that was truly inspiring to behold.
Emily will be greatly missed by her sister, Flora Bishop; her nieces, Kathy and Eleanor and her nephews, Cal, Stuart and Loren; as well as by their children, Fraser, Laura, Amy, Sara, Mark, Kara and Shannon and great-great nieces and nephews, Lillian, Gemma, Hadley, Emily, Kayla and Jacob. Sharing in their grief are Emily’s grandchildren, Rachel and Jordan as well was their parents, Donna and Scott.
She was predeceased by her siblings, John Calvert and Jean Kerkhoven.
Emily’s sweetness of spirit will be remembered by all who knew her.
Visitation will take place at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, Uxbridge, Ont. Friday, May 6th at 1 p.m. with a celebration of Emily’s life to take place at 2 p.m.
The family requests that in lieu of flowers, donations in Emily’s name be made to the Uxbridge Cottage Hospital Foundation or the Ghana Health Team at https://grid-nea.org/teams/ghana-health-team/ght-donate/
