SMITHSON, Claire (Belisle) Smithson, Obituary
SMITHSON, Claire (nee Belisle) - August 4, 1929 – October 29, 2015
Passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by her loved ones, on October 29, 2015, in her 87th year.
Predeceased by her loving husband, James Russell Smithson(August 9, 2007). Cherished mother to Lynn Ross, Diane Smithson, James Smithson and Michael Smithson(Jodi). Lovingly remembered by her grandchildren Tawney, Lindsey, Drake, Jade, Mason, Cassandra and Marli.
Claire’s family would like to extend their thanks to the Cardiac Unit of Mt. Sinai Hospital for their expertise and attentive care of our mother, and a special thank you to her PSW Sophia, for her generosity and kindness of spirit, and to Dr. Wu for all of his years of care.
Mom was born in Montreal, and of course, had that Montreal style that the women of that city are renowned for. She met our father on a Great Lakes ship. A Toronto born Englishman, neither could speak the others language, but love finds a way. Our mother was an amazing singer and loved to dance.
The most important thing in her life was her family. Many happy times were shared at the cottage. Right to the end, our mother held to her dignity and pride, with a sense of humour and resolve, to try and make the situation as easy on her loved ones as she could. Right to the end she thought of us.
Friends may call for visitation on Tuesday, November 3, from 2-4 and 7-9 pm at ARMSTRONG FUNERAL HOME
(124 King St. E., Oshawa), with a service to be held in the funeral home chapel on Wednesday, November 4, at 1 pm. Cremation to follow.

Winnie passed away peacefully at Hillsdale Terraces, Oshawa on Wednesday, October 28, 2015, in her 99th year.

After she graduated from Oshawa General Hospital School of Nursing, Winnie and Jim married in 1939 and settled in Oshawa to raise their family. Winnie loved spending summers at the cottage in Presqu’ile Provincial Park; a tradition her family is pleased to continue.

ST. JOHN, Elizabeth St. John, Obituary
ST. JOHN, Elizabeth - Betty St. John died peacefully at Butternut Manor, Uxbridge on Thursday, October 29, 2015.
Elizabeth Shiells Rae was born May 26, 1921 in Wingham, Ontario to Donald and Bessie Rae.
She left her parents and her siblings, Ronald, Ella, Murray and Bob and western Ontario to study nursing at the Toronto General Hospital graduating in 1944.
She married J. Russell St. John M.D., on September 29 that year.
After Russ completed his military service with the Army Medical Corps and with her firstborn child, they ventured to isolated Howley, Newfoundland where Russell was employed by Bowater Pulp and Paper as the community’s doctor.
Betty regaled her children and grandchildren with tales of their adventures, home deliveries with which she assisted, cooking and heating the iron on the wood stove, mummering and the warm hospitality in what was pre-confederation Newfoundland.
In 1948, Betty and Russ returned to his home town of Uxbridge where she raised her family of five children, volunteered in the community, provided a base for extended family, maintained close relations with a myriad of friends despite the demands of their medical life- she always loved a party.
She was predeceased by her parents, her siblings, her son Douglas St. John and her husband Russell St. John. Betty was devoted to her husband Russ of 69 years, proud of her children and took great delight in her grandchildren and their offspring who though far flung, visited whenever they could, sent photos and had email exchanges with their granny. She gave them all the greatest of gifts, roots and wings.
Betty will be missed and remembered fondly by her son Brian St. John and daughter Mary Bryon both of Uxbridge, son Wayne St. John of Bethany and daughter Sue St. John of Toronto; mother-in-law to Nancy St. John, Terry Bryon, Donna St. John and Lorraine Holding; grandmother to Melanie, Kelly, Rachel, Marcia, Rebecca, Meredith, Gillian and Douglas and great-grandmother to Jake, Keira, Wynton, Reuben, Callum, Bowen, John and Leona.
The family would like to thank Dr. T.F. Bryon, the compassionate staff of Butternut Manor for their wonderful care, palliative care workers of CCAC Cindy and Vera, Jen of Our Social Butterflies and caregivers Margaret, Gloria and Nancy of Day by Day.
A Celebration of Betty’s life will be held at St. Andrew’s Hall, St. Andrew’s-Chalmers Presbyterian Church, in Uxbridge on Friday, December 11th from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
