Eleanor Arbuckle

Todd - Eleanor

Peacefully on Wednesday, April 30, 2014 in her 85th year. Beloved wife of the late Morris "Moe" Todd. Dear mother of Lee Ann (Don Cummings), Mike (Seb Collura), Kathy (Mike Allen), Pam (Kevin Ward) and Dave (Anne-Louise). Loving grandmother of Chris (Sarah), Melissa (Max), Elaine (Phil), Erin, Alan (Jessica), Alexander (Jessica), David, Joseph, Mitch, Alex (Megan), Braden (Justine).and great grandmother of Lynne, Calub, Emma, Lucas, and Melody. Predeceased by her siblings, Mary Arbuckle, Frances McKitrick, Edna Dunbar, David Arbuckle, George Arbuckle. A local nurse, her gentle manner, warm smile and sense of humour were appreciated by many who were in her care. She was a long time member of the choir at St. Paul's United Church, Richmond where her clear and beautiful voice will be remembered. The links and water hazards at the Richmond Centennial Golf Course surely still hide many of her golf balls, and we're sure there might still be a scarf or two left behind in the cloakroom at the Richmond Curling Club where she spent many fun-filled hours. She took up quilting in her retirement and enjoyed both the craft and the laughs she shared there. She will be missed.
