BESEN,
Eleanor
Shirley (née
WOLFE)
Died peacefully at her home in Toronto on Thursday, June 28,
2007, following a courageous and graceful struggle with cancer,
which defeated her body, but never her spirit or sense of humour.
Born in Toronto on January 1, 1924. She is predeceased by parents
Maurice and Tillie
WOLFE, and brothers Ray, Leonard, Jack, and
Harvey. She is survived by her adoring immediate family, daughters
Joan, and Ellen
BESEN, and Ellen's companion Steve
BARR, grand_son
Sunny THRASHER, and granddaughter-in-law Bree
TIFFIN, granddaughter
Tamar LIPSEY, and by her long time dear companion, Harold
KELSALL.
She is remembered lovingly by sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews,
cousins, and extended family members, as well as the innumerable
Friends whose lives she so deeply touched. The family wants to
give special thanks to Eleanor's caregiver, Cynthia
SEGARRA,
who did so much to make an unbearable situation bearable not
only for Eleanor but for the family, and
to Fatima PEREIRA, without
whose soup and muffins a difficult situation would have been
much worse. Also thanks to Lisa and Chedita. Eleanor was a graduate
of the University of Toronto in the field of Occupational Therapy.
She was a fine painter, specializing in watercolours. A graduate
of the Ontario College of Art, and a member of the Ontario Society
of Watercolorists and the Arts and Letters Club. She was a folk
dancer, a line dancer, a belly dancer, and a world traveller.
She had an astounding eye for beauty, colour and proportion,
and this wonderful ability was evident in every part of her life
and made the lives of everyone who knew her richer and more beautiful.
She will be missed. The family would like to thank the Temmy
Latner
Centre,
Doctors
MEUSER, and
RIEGER, and nurses Dusanka, Richard,
and May for the wonderful palliative care which they provided.
At Benjamin's Park Memorial Chapel, 2401 Steeles Ave., W., (3 lights
west of Dufferin), for service on Sunday, July 1st at 11: 30 a.m.
Interment Beth Tzedec Memorial Park. Shiva 1 Concord Place, Suite 1404.
