GWYNNETH HOUGHTON
June 10, 1925 - March 28, 2016
Gwynneth came to Sechelt in 1992 with her partner, Ernie Addicott. She and Ernie were active in the community playing music with others and received much love from all with whom they spent time.
Gwynneth was also involved at the Seniors Centre doing volunteer work and sang in a local choir. She leaves many friends behind.
Originally from Birkenhead, England, she emigrated to Canada in 1955 and lived mostly in West Vancouver until her move to the Sunshine Coast.
Gwynneth is survived by her son Mark, nieces Gillian and Sheila, sister Olwen, and brother Griff.
From Gwynneth to all she had the pleasure to know:
"If I should go before the rest of you, break not a flower nor inscribe a stone,
Nor when I'm gone, speak in a "Sunday" voice, but be the usual selves that I have known,
Weep if you must - parting is hell, but life goes on, so sing as well."
To all at Totem Lodge that provided Gwynneth with much comfort and wonderful care, thank you. May you all be blessed.
