passing of our beloved Helen. She died of
cancer after a short but courageous fight.
She also suffered from C.O.P.D. which
caused her to be on oxygen for the past 2 1/2
years. Despite these problems, you seldom
heard her complain. Helen's outlook on life
was always bright and cheery. She had a
wonderful sense of humour, and was always
the life of the party. Kind and compassionate
she was extremely generous. Helen had no
enemies, she was loved by everyone. Helen
was predeceased by her parents Esther and
Harvey Newcombe, her brother Kenny (Ella)
and her sister Doreen (Peter). She is survived
by her husband Wayne, and her siblings Roy
(Sonia), Fraser (Johanna), Gloria (Wayne),
Kathleen (Ronald), Ann (Leo), and Myrna
(Duncan). She is also survived by many
nieces, nephews and friends. We would like to
thank the wonderful and caring staff at the
Royal Victoria Hospital Palliative Care Unit
9th Floor, and a special thanks to Kathy
MacDonald, Palliative Care Nurse from the
Mount Sinai Hospital Home Care. A Funeral
Service will take place on Tuesday, July 28,
2015 at 10 a.m. at Saint Monica's Parish
(6405, rue de Terrebonne, Montreal, QC H4B
1A8), The family will receive condolences one
hour prior to the Service. Burial to follow at
Notre-Dame-des-Neiges Cemetery. In lieu of
flowers, donations may be made to a charity
of choice. Rest in peace, little angel.
