Vanda WINSTONE

In Loving Memory

VANDA WINSTONE

1931 – 2015

It is with much sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, great grandmother and aunt, Vanda  Winstone.  She was always the life of the party and treasured very much by her friends Anne, Janet and Tina.

She was born in Gloucester on April 10th 1931 and left us May 13 2015.  At the age of 4, she was placed in an orphanage until her teens.  She later married and had a son, Stephan.

She tenaciously studied to become a hairdresser and eventually owned her own salon in Winchester.  She emigrated to Canada in 1981 with her late second husband Reg where she lived until her passing on Salt Spring. 

  She will always be remembered for her elegance and class.

A warm thank you to  the staff at Lady  Minto Hospital and at Greenwoods for their love and caring.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the Legion Ladies Auxiliary would be welcomed.

A celebration of life will held at Croftonbrook  Hall on June 6th, from 1pm to 3pm.
