MARJORY CHAMBERS It is with great sadness we announce the passing of our loving mother and grandmother Marjory Chambers, aged 86, on Sunday, October 6, 2002 at the Grace Hospital. Marjory was born in Saskatoon, SK to Evans and Lila Smith where she lived until she married Sam Chambers in 1939. She was predeceased by Sam in 1986. They were married for 47 years. Their six children were raised on Overdale in St. James and the "Chambers House" was known by all as a place you could always go. The six surviving children are Kathryn (Dave) Brown of Belleville, ON, Evans (Lee) Chambers of Caroline, AB, Bruce (Edie) Chambers of Kelowna, BC, Brenda (John) Shantz of Kamloops, BC, Roy (Debbie) Chambers of Vancouver, BC, and Christine (Rob) Bye of Winnipeg. She will also be very lovingly remembered by 22 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren. To Mom it was always about family, from our cherished times at Falcon Lake to more recent family memories, Mom was always the warm hub of it all. Mom also had a passion for art and was a lifetime member of the St. James Art Club since 1964. Her works have been displayed at numerous exhibitions and she won numerous awards. Her most prized works were her hand-sculpted crocus often given to family and her many friends. Mom and grandma saw everything in a positive light and could always make you laugh. She will be with us always as she is in our hearts forever. The family wishes to express our sincere thanks to the staff at the Grace Hospital for their excellent care. A celebration of Marjorys life will be held on Thursday, October 10 at 2:00 p.m. at Neil Bardal Inc., 984 Portage Ave., entrance of Aubrey Street. NEIL BARDAL INC. 949-2200
