She leaves her daughter Judy Holden and son-in-law Dave; her sister Myrtle Clemence (Charles); grandchildren, Scott (Melanie), and Paul (Karen); the west coast clan of Jeff, Christine (Mark), Andrea (Darren) and Kim and daughter-in-law Chris. She cherished her three great-grandchildren, Emma, Ashley and Cameron. She was a larger than life role model for all of us. Her zest for life was contagious and she was always game for any family times. She especially loved her summers at the cottage in Sandy Hook and had a claim on "her" bedroom. Gran's sense of humour, style and independence made her so much younger than her 87 years. There is an empty space in our hearts right now but fond memories will soon replace that. A celebration of Isabel's wonderful life will be held at Regents Park United Church, 613 St. Mary's Rd. on Saturday, December 15 at 11:00 a.m. with Rev. Dr. Paul Campbell officiating.

He was predeceased by his parents, Scotty and Mae Ellis; brother Melvin; and stepmother Eleanor Ellis. Don was born icon in Foxwarren, MB on December 10, 1929. He attended Foxwarren School, Norwood Collegiate, and graduated as a chartered accountant from the University of Manitoba. Shortly after, he joined Ladco Co. Ltd. and enjoyed the challenge of land development where he was instrumental in developing the first lake subdivision in Winnipeg. He was a key player in the Canadian Mint's location in Winnipeg. He went into business on his own after his days at Ladco and was highly respected by all his colleagues. Don was very passionate about his work right until just before his death. Don's other passion was his two grand-daughters. He would be "counting the sleeps" along with them until the next time they could see each other, either in Calgary for Christmas or at the cottage in Ontario where he was the greatest innovator when it came to repairing equipment. He will be remembered for his interest in classical music, especially brass and encouraged anyone who visited the house to have a try on the trumpet, cornet or euphonium. Don was a very generous man and was always there for family and friends in their time of need. Don was an active member at St. Andrew's Anglican Church and spent many years as treasurer and occasionally, advisor. "Papa" will be greatly missed but we know a part of you will always be with us and we will never forget the twinkle in your eye.
