In 1950 they moved to Woodhaven where they raised their four children. They were always known to family friends as Officer Ed and Nurse Eileen . After the untimely death of daughter Sharon, they raised their grandson David from birth until the age of three. Her uncanny wit and sense of humour kept everyone on their toes. Cremation has taken place and a private family graveside service will be held in Chapel Lawn Cemetery. Our family would like to thank the entire staff of Golden West Lodge for the care they show to ALL in their facility.
