CRIBB, Barbara Ruth - September 27, 1929 - May 12, 2018

Barbara Ruth Cribb passed away peacefully at dinner on Saturday, May 12, 2018 at Thompson House in Don Mills.

With happy visits from her son George on Friday afternoon, her husband Keith Saturday morning and daughter Cynthia Saturday afternoon, this sudden passing was a blessing for all.

She had only been in this Better Living facility for five weeks enjoying great care and making new friends.

Barbara was born in Toronto, to parents George and Jean (Treloar) Bateman.

The youngest of the family, she was predeceased by her parents and sister Betty. She graduated from Havergal College in 1947, became a Registered Nurse through Toronto General Hospital in 1952 and moved into private practice until her marriage to Keith in 1956. Barb loved music, having learned to play piano as a young girl, and enjoyed attending musicals at the Drayton, Stratford and Shaw festivals.

She enjoyed the beaches of Southhampton where her family had a childhood cottage. Throughout her life, she was an avid golfer, in Toronto and Sarasota, Florida where she and Keith spent the winter. Together, they enjoyed many memorable cruises and trips to Europe. Barb treasured time spent with lifelong friends, school and nursing classmates.

Most of all, she cherished special occasions with family and friends. She supported many charities including the Arthritis Society, Salvation Army and Better Living. Barbara was a loving wife, mother, aunt and friend, who brought us great joy. She will be forever in our hearts.

A private service will be held on May 17th. A celebration of life for all will follow as soon as arrangements have been made.

In lieu of flowers, donations to Better Living would be appreciated.
