Obituary of Eleanor Louise Jane Waugh
Waugh, Eleanor "Billie” Louise Jane (nee Kidd)
B.A. Queen’s University 1935
It is with great sadness we say a loving farewell to a wonderful lady, mother, sister, aunt, grandmother, great grandmother and friend who passed away at Maplewood Nursing Home in Brighton on Tuesday, March 26, 2013 in her 99th year. Much beloved wife of the late James Douglas "Doug” Waugh B.A. Queen’s University 1935, and loving mother of Jo-Ann Graham (Don Carter) and John (Bonnie) Waugh. She was the proud Grandmother of Heather (Will) and Andrew Graham, James (Sarah), John (Jill), Andy and Mitch Waugh, Nicole (Greg) Betteridge and Alicia (Lindsay) Wight. A very proud Great -grandmother as well, she was "Grandma Too” to Cathryn Graham and Alyxandra Graham-Taylor, and simply but appropriately "Great” to Ava J, Tess Waugh, Torah and Devon Betteridge. She is also survived by her sister, Madge Flindall of Trenton.
Eleanor is predeceased by her parents, Dr. George and Mrs. Hazel Kidd, her brother George and sisters Hazel and Mary Alice.
Eleanor enjoyed 50+ years in Oshawa where she made many friends and taught high school at O.C.V.I. and O.C.C.I.
Eleanor spent a few years at Carolina Suites Retirement Home in Perth, and her last almost 4 years at Maplewood Nursing Home in Brighton. To both Staffs, heartfelt thanks for all your care and kindness.
In lieu of flowers, please spend a few minutes with an elderly loved one, or make a donation to a charity of your choice. There will be a "Celebration of Eleanor’s Life” at the home of her son, John, at a later date. Interment will be at the Cataraqui Cemetery in Kingston, alongside her husband, Doug.
