MORTIFEE,
Margaret
Anderson (1921-2005)
Angel 'Incognito'; Undercover
Bodhisattva; Une Grande Dame...
"Marga', born in Bloomfontein, South Africa on January 19th,
1921, made her transition to the other side surrounded by her
five children and loved ones at 6: 10 p.m. on Monday, December
12th, 2005 after a thankfully brief illness with cancer.
Born of Scottish parents, Marga was raised in the Orange Free
State in South Africa. A volunteer Corporal in the South African
Army during World War 2, this "Canteen Cutie" served primarily
in Egypt, driving 5-ton lorries and contributing to a variety
of other duties. At war's end, she met and married Bill ('Monty')
MORTIFEE (deceased October 1st, 1998) in Pretoria, South Africa.
As the wife of a Member of Parliament, she lived half time on
a sugar cane farm in Zululand and half time in Cape Town. There
she had four daughters (Margaret, Ann, Mary and Jane). In 1956
the family immigrated to Vancouver where she then had a son (Peter).
She volunteered for a number of organizations. She had a keen
interest in modern history and current events. She loved to read,
particularly biographies. She was a supporter of the arts and
innumerable humanitarian charities. In her later years she was
thrilled to finally take up the art of painting.
Marga was a woman of extraordinary kindness, compassion and generosity.
Her greatest devotion was to diminishing the suffering of others.
Nothing gave her greater satisfaction and joy than knowing that
those she cared about were well. Her primary passion was her
family and her dearest loved ones. She had true empathy with
an unusual capacity to listen and an authentic interest in people's
lives. Her outrageous and irreverent sense of humour endeared
her to all who met her.
Mum/Granny is survived by her five children Margaret
MORTIFEE
(Julien-Jacques
SABY,)
Ann
MORTIFEE (Paul
HORN,) Mary
SIMONIN
(Mark DRABOT), Jane
MORTIFEE, Peter

and her eight grandchildren Georges
BOIS,
Robert
BOIS, Dora-Jane
SIMONIN, Luke
SIMONIN, Devon
MORTIFEE, Jessica
BIRCH, Lauren
MORTIFEE and Claire
MORTIFEE.
It is with both grief at the loss of such a beacon of light and
yet profound gratitude for all the blessings she bestowed on
so many of us, that the family invite those of you whose lives
were touched by her to come and join in a celebration of her
life on Sunday, December 18th, 2005 from 12 to 3 p.m. at the
Royal Vancouver Yacht Club (Jericho Club House). Marga requested
that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Salvation Army.
