Julianna's main focus in life was her large family to whom she
devoted vast amounts of time and energy. She was a patient, wonderful,
caring mother and grandmother, a whiz at accomplishing many tasks
in a calm and unflappable manner, an excellent cookie and pie
maker, and a gracious hostess. Over the years her fingers were
rarely idle as she created items for the Hospital Gift Shop or
knitted goods, especially sweaters, for her own family. She was
active in the community being a lifetime member of St. Alban's
Cathedral and St. Alban's Altar Guild. Of her many volunteer
activities she really enjoyed helping children from Kin Valley
School at their swimming classes in the (now) Lakeside Inn and
delivering Meals on Wheels with daughter Eleanor. She was a member
of the Ladies Hospital Auxiliary for many years taking a turn
as President. She enjoyed Friendships with many people including
her square dancing group and her afternoon Bridge Club with whom
she played bridge until she was 89. Truly her favourite time
of year was summertime when she loved sharing the family island
on Lake of the Woods with her ever growing and changing family.
She took great pleasure her whole life long in boat rides, picnics
and sunsets on beautiful Lake of the Woods. Julianna will long
be remembered as a kind, considerate and dear person.
Immediate cremation has taken place. A memorial service and celebration
of her life will be held at St. Alban's Cathedral, 312 Main Street
South, Kenora, on Saturday, November 22nd, 2003 at 1: 30 p.m.
A reception downstairs in the church hall will follow immediately
afterwards.
As an expression of sympathy, those who wish may make a donation
in Julianna's memory to the Lake of the Woods C.T. Scanner Fund,
21 Sylvan Street West, Kenora, Ontario P9N 3W7 or to St. Alban's
Cathedral, 312 Main Street South, Kenora, Ontario P9N 1T2, or
to a charity of one's choice.
