Mary Barnaby

Oderkirk – Mary

At the age of 75 Mary moved on to soar with the eagles; after a successful battle with cancer her heart could not bare any more. She joins the spirits of her parents James and Lena; her sisters Maida, Julie, Lorraine; and her brothers Jamus, Bucksy, Gordon, and Percy. Sam, Leona and Donald, along with so many nieces and nephews will also sadly miss her.

Her ever loving partner and husband in this life, Roger will miss her eternally. As a mom to 4 (Sean, Scott, Carolyn, Ted) she prided herself in teaching real life lessons and providing unconditional love and support. Her grandchildren, Robin, Averie, Alexie, Alana, Sofia, Adam, Evelyn and Remington, brought her such joy and she never missed a chance to spoil them.

Mary welcomed so many into her life and home. She’ll be missed by all who knew her, but most of all appreciated for her candour, humour and giving sole. Soar on…

The family wishes to send great thanks to all of the kind souls, from doctors, pharmacists, nurses, Personal Support Workers, friends and neighbors, who helped support and care for Mary over these past four years.

Friends may gather on Sunday, September 25, 2016, from 1 pm – 2 pm at The Garden Chapel of Tubman Funeral Homes, 3440 Richmond Rd., Nepean, and a ceremony will take place in the chapel at 2pm. Family and friends will then join together at the family home.
