Obituary of Eunice Emily Graham
Graham, Eunice Emily (nee Edwards)
At home on Wednesday, December 5, 2018 surrounded by the love of her family and with her daughter Patti at her side mom peacefully passed into the loving arms of the Lord. Mom was born October 21, 1919 in Port Arthur, On (Thunder Bay) and recently celebrated her 99th birthday at home with her family. Following High School, mom attended Fort William Business College as she had a wonderful mathematical mind and began her career in the retail industry with the Walker Store in Smiths Falls. For 10 years she was the manager of the Sears C.O.D. store in Smiths Falls, until retirement. During this time mom was awarded for being the highest grossing sales from a Sears C.O.D. store in Ontario. Our mom, gramma, great gramma loved her family so much. She was kind, understanding, compassionate, generous, and had a very loving heart. She gave us all unconditional love and respect. She loved to see us together celebrating birthdays, Christmas or just hanging out and relaxing around Bill and Jane’s pool. During the winter months mom and dad were off to Florida or Arizona to visit with their brothers and sisters and their families. Mom will be lovingly remembered by her children: Patti of Perth, ON and Bill (Jane) of Rideau Ferry, ON, her grandchildren; Alison (Shawn) of Surrey, B.C., Aaron (Jamie) of Ottawa, ON Brandon (Laura) of Smiths Falls, ON and Brittany (Matt) of Vancouver, B.C., and her great-grandchildren Stratton and Adelaide. Mom is also survived by her sister-in-law Joan (Hugh) Edwards of Renfrew, ON, and numerous nieces and nephews in Port Elgin, Thunder Bay, New York, Florida, Renfrew and Arizona. Mom was predeceased by her loving husband of 50 years William "Bill” Thomas Graham, her sister Dodi Edwards of Port Arthur, ON and by her brother Lloyd "Bud” Esten Edwards of Phoenix, AZ, and by her mother Margaruite Pearl Edwards of Thunder Bay, ON. Friends may pay their respects at the Blair & Son Funeral Home, 15 Gore St., West, Perth on Saturday, December 15th, 2018 from 1:00 to 2:00 P.M. Eunice’s Celebration of Life will take place in the chapel at 2:00pm. In remembrance donations to the Parkinson’s Foundation or to the Heart & Stroke Foundation would be appreciated.
No daughter or son could have had a better mother. We love you mom and we will miss you
