HANSON, Alison Evelyn (nee ROBINS) -
1925 - 2023
Peacefully, on Tuesday, November 28, 2023, at Wyndham Manor, at the age of 98. Wife of the late Russell.
Mother of Elizabeth (Peter), Richard, Patty (Stephen), Terry and Jamie (Carol).
Grandmother of eleven and great-grandmother of seven.
Predeceased by her parents, Frederick George Robins and Alice Priscilla Kett; twin sister, Margaret; and sister, Joyce.
Survived by her brother, Ross. Alison was born in Montreal on September 12, 1925, ten minutes after Margaret.
As her father struggled to raise a young family of four children through the Great Depression and WWII, they were required to move frequently in search of work in the field of mechanical engineering.
Alison and Russ were married on September 9, 1950, and, in addition to raising their five children, enjoyed years together of square dancing, international travel, and camping every summer at Sandbanks Provincial Park.
Alison's family would like to thank the staff and residents of Wyndham Manor Long-Term Care Centre in Oakville for the excellent and compassionate care she received, and the companionship she enjoyed during her almost two and a half years of residence.
Special thanks also to the wonderful companions from Acclaim Health, who filled her hours with friendship and ensured she was not alone when the family could not be with her.
A Funeral Service will be held at Christ First United, 1700 Mazo Crescent, Mississauga, on Saturday, December 2, 2023, at 3 p.m. Reception to follow. A private family interment will take place.
If desired, remembrances may be made to the Humane Society or International Fund for Animal Welfare.
