MARGARET HELEN D'ANGELO 1918 - 2006 Our very dear mother and grandmother, Margaret Helen D'Angelo, passed away peacefully on October 23, 2006 at the Rosedale Hospice in Calgary, after a short battle with cancer. She is lovingly remembered by her six children, Michael (Debbie), Murray (Grace), Cathy (Bob) Martin, Claudia (Frank) Jones, Trish (Brian) Kelly and Sonia (Conor) D'Angelo-Vibert, together with 17 grandchildren; her dear sisters-in-law Marjorie Burns and Gene D'Angelo and nine nieces and nephews. Mom was predeceased by her parents Eugene Patrick Burns and Margaret (Greta) Burns, her husband Frank D'Angelo (1998), husband William Tout (2006), and her brother Roderick Michael Burns (1990). Mom was born and raised in Winnipeg, where she graduated from both St. Mary's Academy and the Angus School of Commerce. She worked for the Manitoba Telephone System and the CNR. Mom married Dad in May, 1951. In 1953, the CNR transferred the young family to Montreal, where Mom and Dad were very busy for many years raising six lively children. Mom moved to Calgary in May, 2000. She was a devoted wife, mother and grandmother, who lived both a spirited and spiritual life, and she will be missed. The family wishes to thank the very caring staff at both the Rockyview General Hospital and the Rosedale Hospice. The funeral service will occur at St. David's Church, 12450 rue Gascon, Pierrefonds, Quebec on Saturday, October 28 at 2:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, if friends so desire a donation to the Hospice Calgary Society will be very much appreciated (#900 - 833 - 4th Ave. S.W., Calgary, AB T2P 3T5).
