Anna Newland

Peacefully on Thursday, December 31, 2015 at the age of 91. For 58 years, she and her husband Frits (2008) shared a life together bringing into this world John, Mattie Montgomery and Sheila. She was grateful to her son-in-law Hugh for his love and care. Anna was very proud of her grandchildren Christopher, Daun, Lisa, Lynne and Julia and thrilled with her great grandchildren Paavo and Wren. Anna left her native Netherlands with Frits and two small children in 1953 to begin a new and better life and was forever grateful for her adopted Canada. We appreciate her sacrifices. We will forever hold dear her positive outlook, sense of humour and caring ways. Her memory will endure through us. We love you Mom. Special thanks to all of the staff at Granite Ridge for their kindness and excellent caring support. Friends may call to the Garden Chapel of Tubman Funeral Homes, 3440 Richmond Road, Nepean on Tuesday January 5, 2016 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. A memorial service will be in the chapel on Wednesday, January 6, 2016 at 2:30 p.m. Reception to follow. Those wishing may make donations to the Queensway Carleton Hospital Foundation.
