EDITH WARNER A lady has left us. It is with deep regret and sadness that I announce her passing on October 5, 2009. Edith was born on March 26, 1913 in Glasgow, Scotland, younger daughter of Robert and Mabel Wilson (nee Smith). She was predeceased by her father, mother and only sister Dorothy, first husband William Frederick Langnase (Bill), and second husband David Edwin Warner (Dave). Edith immigrated to Canada in 1953 and settled in the Elmwood area where she made her home. She is survived by two stepdaughters and their families. Also her goddaughter and numerous caring friends. She enjoyed travelling and her hobbies included painting, stamp collecting, five pin bowling, carpet bowling, lawn bowling and gardening. She was a life member of the Rainbow Society and a sponsor of World Vision and Save the Children. Edith generously donated to many other charities. She was a life member of the UCW and a member of Grey Street United Church, (651 Sandhurst Avenue) where a celebration of her life will be held on Saturday, October 10, 2009 at 2:30 p.m. A private burial along with Dave's ashes will take place in Elmwood Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made to a charity of your choice.
