Passed peacefully away on Sunday, April 10, 2016, at the Grand Bank Retirement Centre, Edith Bell (Forsey) White, age 86 years, of Grand Bank. Predeceased by her parents John and Eliza (Bungay) Forsey, her brother Harvey Forsey, and her great-granddaughter Annabelle Barbour. Leaving to mourn daughter Meta (Lloyd) Day, son John (Gussie) White, daughter Doreen (Derek) Barbour, son Derrick (Gloria) White, sister Hannah (Gerry) Leahy, grandchildren Michael, Billy, Dennis, David, Michelle (Brent), Denise (Charlie), Todd (Stacey), Neil and Samuel, and great-granddaughter Katie, also sister-in-law Janie Forsey, and special family members Floris White, Fred (Maxine) White and Effie (Ralph) Spears, and a long list of dear friends and colleagues. Edith ("Edie Bell") was famous for her knitting and worked for most of her life at the Grand Bank Cottage Hospital in various capacities. She was an active member of the United Church of Grand Bank as a long time member of the Senior Choir, and the UCW. During her years living in St. John's her church involvement was shared between the Salvation Army Citadel, the Elim Pentecostal Tabernacle and George Street United Church. During her life she was blessed with the strength and health to care for others, and during her brief and peaceful illness she was rewarded equally in return. As a family we wish to extends our sincerest thanks and appreciation to the management and staff of the Grand Bank Retirement Centre, Dr. Beckley, and Public Health Nurse Kim West for their exceptional care, kindness and accommodation. Remains resting at Warren's Funeral Home in Grand Bank, on Monday April 11, 2016 from 2-4 pm and 7-9 pm, and again on Tuesday, April 12th from 2-4 pm, and 7-9 pm. Funeral services will be held at Grand Bank United Church, on Wednesday, April 13, 2016 at 1 pm. Internment to follow at the Grand Bank United Church Cemetery. Flowers will be appreciatively accepted and monetary donations in her memory may be made to Grand Bank United Church. Condolences may be left online at www.warrensfuneralhome.com.
