Ellen Monro (nee Vincent)

Obituary

Passed on July 2, 2019

February 23, 1941 – July 2, 2019 Ellen passed away peacefully, with her daughter by her side at the Stonewall Hospital on July 2, 2019, at the age of 78. She will be lovingly remembered by her son Ken and wife Sharon; daughter Heather and husband Duane Mann, grandchildren Julia and Kurtis Mann and brother Bill Vincent. She was predeceased by her husband George in November 2001, parents Stuart and Gertie, brothers Stanley, Kenny, Sidney, Charlie, Jimmy and Donnie. Ellen was born and raised in Stony Mountain, the youngest of eight. Growing up with seven older brothers sure made Ellen strong and feisty. She retired from the Invoice Processing Department at Eaton’s in February 1991 and began volunteering at Oak Hammock Marsh where she made many special friends and memories. Cremation has taken place and as per Ellen’s wishes, there will be no service. If friends so desire, donations may be made to Oak Hammock Marsh Interpretive Centre or to the Manitoba Lung Association. We would like to thank the staff at Stonewall Hospital for their care and compassion, as well as the many Homecare attendants for their assistance. How do I know my youth is all spent? My get-up-and-go has got up and went! But, in spite of it all, I’m able to grin And think of the places my getup has been! Mom, know that you will be missed each and every day, but we will carry the love we have for you in our hearts, and cherish the many memories we have created together.
