MURIEL GRACE SIMISTER

Muriel is survived

Brophy; grandchildren Christopher (Andrea), Kristin (Mark), Ryan (Kari) and Leah and great

be fondly remembered by her brother John; sister's Dorothy, Margaret and Jean; as well as many nieces; nephews and friends. She was predeceased by husbands Frank Davey (1944),

Born April
9, 1923 in North Kildonan, Manitoba, Muriel subsequently lived in Montreal,
Ottawa, South Surrey, B.C. and Tuxedo, Winnipeg. She was an avid and informed reader, strong
supporter of the arts, passionate gardener and enthusiastic global
traveler. Canoeing, ocean kayaking,
mountain hiking and cargo ship sailing were but a few of her enjoyed pursuits.
The family
extends deep gratitude to the teams at both the Shaftesbury Park Retirement Residence and the Poseidon Care Centre for their
kind and compassionate care of our mother.
At Muriel’s request, a private family celebration of her life will
take place at a date to be determined.
