Marguerite Hilda Popko passed away peacefully on December 5, 2024, at Age Care Samac in Oshawa at the age of 96. Born in Stretford, Manchester, England, she was the beloved daughter of the late Walter Elliot and the late Phyllis Gunn.
Marguerite was predeceased by her devoted husband, Stanley Popko, in 2015 after 66 wonderful years of marriage. She is survived by her loving children, Zofia (Jeff), Jan (Pat), and Conrad (Suzanne). Marguerite and Stanley shared a passion for travel and spent many cherished years at their beloved cottage on Moira Lake in Madoc, forming lifelong friendships along the way.
The Popko family extends heartfelt thanks to the doctors, nurses, PSWs, and staff at Lakeridge Health and Age Care Samac residence for their care and compassion during Marguerite’s final journey.
In keeping with Marguerite’s wishes, cremation has taken place, and no visitation or formal funeral service will be held. A private family gathering will be held to honor her memory.
