WILLI EVANS WOLFE

WOLFE, WILLI EVANS - Our gentle Willi, of St. Andrews, New Brunswick, born on the 21st of March 1943 in Cincinnati, Ohio died of cancer at the Charlotte County Hospital on the 30th of October 2009 surrounded by family who had come from far and wide to be with her as she would have done if they had died first and the roles had been reversed. Her life was marked by her caring and giving nature. She took her mother into her home at Jemseg for the last 18 months of her life. She spent a year in Chicago looking after her grandmother and a year in Colombia helping her sister Caroline after the birth of her first child. She returned often as the Colombian family grew. She was always there if family - or anyone else - needed her and she was always gracious with a gentle smile on her lips and in her eyes. Hearing her soft tones on the phone wiped the furrows off your brow. In her presence you knew you were valued, be you prince or pauper. She was an accomplished musician, linguist and weaver. She was passionate about the arts and whatever she turned her hand to you knew would be done well. Her word was her bond. She is survived by sisters, Mary Bapst in Geneva, Switzerland, Caroline Villa in Tampa, FL, Anne Lanctot in Bedford, QC; brothers, John in Minneapolis, MN, Tom in North Harwich, MA, Nick in Benson, AZ and Ed in Sunapee, NH. By her three stepchildren, Jason Wolfe in Vancouver, BC, Rebecca Wolfchild in Belleview, WA, Marius Wolfe in Montreal, QC. By her husband Max in St. Andrews, NB and by a legion of nieces, nephews, grand nieces and grand nephews. The world is a poorer place for her passing. A memorial service will be held at the Wesley United Church in St Andrews on Thursday November 5, 2009 at 1:30 pm. In lieu of flowers please make a donation to Medecins Sans Frontieres. Arrangements have been entrusted to Fundy Funeral Home, 230 Westmorland Road, Saint John (646-2424) www.fundyfuneralhome.com
