The family of the late Ellen White would like to express heartfelt thanks and appreciation to all who helped during the illness and passing of a beloved wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother. Ellen suffered from Alzheimer’s and spent the last two years of her life at Long-term Care, Corner Brook. We will be forever grateful to the staff of the Protective Care Unit for the care and kindness shown to Ellen and to us. The service you provide to families and residents is exceptional. Ellen’s last days were spent on the Palliative Care Unit, Western Memorial Regional Hospital and we were overwhelmed by the care and compassion given by the palliative care staff. A special thank you goes to Dr. Robert Young who has been there every step of the way.

There are special people who supported us throughout Ellen’s illness. We wish to especially acknowledge Marie and Murdock White, Eva Hackett, Isabelle Barry, Cecilia Gallant and Geraldine Field. A special thank you to Sister Donna and Sister Mildred for their ongoing spiritual support.

The many acts of kindness by friends, relatives, neighbours and colleagues will always be remembered. Thank you for your visits, messages, calls, flowers, cards, food and charitable donations. Each and every expression of sympathy has provided us comfort in this difficult time.

We wish to thank Father Edmund Camacho, the readers, the pallbearers, the musicians, those who presented the gifts, the Eucharistic Minister, and all who attended the funeral service. Your contribution and presence made the service very meaningful. Special thanks to Sister Donna and Sister Mildred for presiding over the service at the funeral home.

We are thankful for the professional and respectful service provided by the staff of Fillatre’s Funeral Home.

Many have touched our hearts with kindness, compassion and support and you will be remembered always.

The White Family
