Tance Alcock

Passed away peacefully at her home surrounded by her loving family on Sunday, July 5, 2015 at the age of 82 years. Cherished wife of Stew for 58 years. Lovingly devoted mother of Pam and the late Carolee. Babo to her beloved granddaughters Alison and Susie. Dear sister of Dick Alcock (Eleanor). Cousin and best friend of Tracy Lamb (Jason Smyth).

Tance has been negotiating late stage Parkinsons for the past couple of years and completely defying the odds and doctors predictions for over a year. For years she has faced her physical challenges with her unique, undeniable and unequaled grace, optimism, strong will and indomitable spirit. She will be missed dearly by her family and friends and the many people whose lives she has shed her light so brightly on. Special thank-you to Dr. Louise Coulombe whose compassion and experience contributed greatly to the quality and duration of Tance's extended time with us. Friends may call at the Westboro Chapel of Tubman Funeral Homes, 403 Richmond Road (at Roosevelt) on Wednesday, July 8, 2015 from 12noon until time of service in the chapel at 1 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations to World Vision would be appreciated.
