ALBERTA LILLIAN WHYARD June 22, 1918 - October 16, 2013 Peacefully on Wednesday, October 16, 2013 at the Convalescent Home of Winnipeg, after a long and wonderful life. She was predeceased by her husband Herb in 2003. She will be lovingly missed by her sons Allan (Nan) of Brockville, Ontario and Bruce (Diane) of Winnipeg, Manitoba. She was the proud grandmother of Steven (Michelle) of Winnipeg, Christopher (Rhoni) of Gibson, BC and Ashley (Darren) of Winnipeg. Great-grandmother to Alexandra, Findley and Margot. Mom had an indomitable spirit and tireless energy. From difficult beginnings in her youth, she and Dad were able to make a wonderful life together - full of friends and travels around the world. They enjoyed an idyllic retirement together until Dad's passing. The family wishes to express our sincere thanks to the wonderful "angels" on the 4th floor of the Convalescent Home of Winnipeg and especially Lorrie. Your empathy and kindness will always be remembered. Cremation has taken place and interment will take place in Thornhill, Ontario at a later date. In lieu of flowers, should you desire, a donation to the charity of your choice would be appreciated. THOMSON "IN THE PARK" 925-1120 Condolences may be sent to www.thomsoninthepark.com

Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

  • I will never forget the care I got from Herb & Alberta and the fun we had during the early part of 1955 while staying at the Whyards on Elgin St. while completing the school year prior to joining my Mom (Elizabeth) and sister in Port Arthur. - Posted by: Bruce Barker (co-worker at Harley's drug store, school friend of Allan and Bruce, and 3rd son of Herb and Alberta ) on: Oct 22, 2013

  • Alberta was like a second mother to me. I spent MANY happy days and nights with the Whyard family. Even tho' I left Canada almost 50 years ago, she was part of my life, so I think of her often. One of my fondest memories was when she decided to take up smoking. She "smoked" Peter Jackson which was a short step above breathing air and, occasionally, almost got a little smoke in her mouth - we all laughed. - Posted by: Chuck Shannon (school friend of Al and Bruce) on: Oct 21, 2013

  • i have many fond memories of my aunt alberta and will remember her always. As a youngster i had many visits with aunt Alberta and uncle Herb and cousins allan and bruce - at the farm and in Thornhill, those were memorable times. - Posted by: john and joan Nuttall (nephew) on: Oct 21, 2013
