MARY CHAPMAN (nee SCOTT) (MCCULLOUGH) April 30, 1916 - January 13, 2011 At the Poseidon Personal Care Residence, in her 95th year, Mary Chapman passed away in the early morning hours of January 13, 2011, in the loving presence of her son, Terry. Mum was born in Gillingham, Kent on April 30, 1916 immigrating to Canada at the age of five with her parents and older brother, Ronald. She was predeceased by her parents, Alford Charles and Kate (Eaton) Scott, siblings Ronald Scott, Robert Scott and Joan Henderson, her daughter Wendy Janice McCullough and husbands Frank (Francis Crawford) McCullough and Harold Ernest Chapman. She is survived by three children: son Terry (Cathy) McCullough and daughters, Gael (Richard) Kusano and Judith Meakin, five grandchildren, Colin Kusano, Jay (Leanne) Meakin and Bryn, Caitlin and Holly McCullough and four great-grandchildren, Nicola, Noah and Gabriella Meakin and Michael Kusano. Mary was a long-time employee of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. She liked to play cribbage, do the Jumble , and spend time in her garden and visiting with her family. We would like to thank the staff of the Poseidon Personal Care Residence and The Waverley for their kindness to mum. Cremation has taken place and an interment service will be held at Brookside Cemetery followed by a private reception in the spring. Flowers gratefully declined. Should you wish, Mum would have been pleased to have donations made in her memory to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Winnipeg Humane Society, or a charity of your choice.
