Smith MargaretSMITH, Margaret Olive  - It is with deep sadness and gratitude for a long, blessed life we share the passing of our beloved mother Margaret on Thursday October 14, 2021 in her 91st year.

Margaret is survived by her sweetheart Edward who has been by her side for 64 years and her devoted children; Sharon Smith-Carter (Rick), Suzanne Smith-Bayley (Mark) and Andrew Smith.

She was a loving grandma to Harrison Carter (Jessica), Spencer, Meghan and Callum Bayley and fondly remembered by honourary grandkids Dan Carter (Renee) and Stephanie Carter (Lysa).

Margaret was predeceased by her parents Tom & Olive Boyes and her brothers Ron, Tommy & David Boyes of Guisborough, Yorkshire. She is remembered by her adored soul-sister-in-law Margaret Boyes and her dear nieces and nephews; Julie, Ian, Sharon, Nichola and Martin of North Yorkshire, England.

With a suitcase filled with love, faith, adventure and courage she arrived in Toronto in 1957 on her honeymoon and quickly gained employment in the advertising office of Bell Canada until beginning a family in 1959.  After a 2-year interlude to Britain and missing the warmth of Canada, mom and dad returned in 1962 and settled in Don Mills to raise their growing family.

Our family would like to thank the staff at Sunrise Unionville and the Palliative support team for their kindness and compassion over mom’s final days. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to The Alzheimer Society of Canada, or your Local Humane Society if desired.  A private family memorial will take place following visitation.

“I'll be seeing you, In all the old familiar places,
That this heart of mine embraces, All day through…….

There will be a private immediate family only service to take place.  On behalf of the family we thank you for your understanding at this time. A Cremation has taken place.
