Maureen A. Lunsford

Passed away peacefully surrounded by family and friends, Friday May 20th, 2011 at Vancouver General Hospital after a brave and lengthy battle with breast cancer and leukemia.

Maureen was predeceased by her father, David Johnstone Mallett and her husband, Eddie Lewis Lunsford. Maureen is survived by her mother, Viola Ethel Mallett, her twin daughters Simone and Faeron Lunsford, and her beloved grandchildren Celeste, David, and Vya-Maureen.

Maureen was a beautiful, kind-hearted, funny, intelligent, and strong woman. She was a truly devoted and caring mother, grandmother, friend, and nurse.

Maureen devoted her life to caring and supporting others both privately and professionally. She devoted a lifetime of service, care, and support to others and the community as a Registered Nurse for forty years. She truly enjoyed being an R.N. and absolutely adored her clients and co-workers.

Through it all she stayed positive, strong, brave, and kept up her wonderful sense of humor.

Maureen's kind, gentle, and generous spirit will be deeply missed by her family, many dear friends, clients, and co-workers, yet will live on in the hearts and minds of all who knew her.

In lieu of flowers, Maureen wished that donations be made to the Juvenile Diabetes Camp Fund.

Memorial will be held at the Scottish Cultural Center, 8886 Hudson Street, Van., B.C.
