WOOD, Sara 'Sally' Ida Jean (Bridge) - “A limb has fallen from the family tree” -

Sara (Sally) Ida Jean Wood (Bridge), age 73, transported suddenly from her earthly to heavenly home on Tuesday, August 27, 2019. 

Sally was born December 21, 1945 in Sudbury to Percy (Locomotive engineer) and Eileen Bridge. 

Predeceased by husband Charles (Chuck) Wood. 

 

She worked at the CPR Telegraph office in Sudbury for many years, transferring to Toronto CN/CP Telecommunications as a Telegraph Operator. 

Sally lived life to the fullest. She was an animal lover, advocate for others, with us through every crisis, determined and vocal as required, kind hearted and feisty to the end.  Sally’s favorite things were the simple pleasures of life, trees, flowers, birds, family and friends at The Carriage House.

Sally is survived by her brother, Wesley (Sue) Bridge, sisters Irene (Gerts) Lemanis, Janet (Bill) Tulloch, special cousins Ardell (Russell) Paul and Ruth (Bill) Dottin and many more wonderful cousins.

Lovingly remembered by nieces and nephews, Clark Bridge, Jordan, Erin; Jason (Trudy) Bridge, Riley, Kailey; Jim Bridge, Morgan, Olivia, Zoey; Colin (Suzie) Lemanis, Carson; special nieces Dawn Lemanis; Ashley (Luc) Boulanger, Lincoln, Scarlett; Theresa (Fabian) Theriault, Harper and Haven.

Fondly remembered by friends Allan, Diane and Millie. 

Presently with all her fur babies Toby Boots, Mandy Muffin, Christopher David, Jackson, Lacy Lee and Biscuit.  Mum, as Jondah said, “Aunt Leen will set another place at the table cause she loved to feed everyone."  

A service will be held at the TRINITY UNITED CHURCH, 72 Young Street, Capreol on Friday, September 6th at 11: 00 a.m., officiated by Rev. David Spencer.

Those who so desire may make a donation in memory of Sally to Wild at Heart Refuge Centre, 95 White Road, Lively, Ontario, P3Y 1C3, or to Trinity United Church in Capreol, Ontario.
