MARGARETKATHLEEN O’BOYLE

MARGARET KATHLEEN O’BOYLE March 6, 1926 – July 27, 2016 It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of our beloved mother and grandmother, Peggy. After a lengthy illness, Peggy joins her loving husband Peter (predeceased 2015). Peggy was the devoted mother of Peter (Hyla) and Terry (Mona) and the adored grandma of Aidan, Erin, John, Kevin and Maggie. She is survived by sisters-in-law Kathleen (Isaac) and Pauline (Patrick) as well as several nieces and nephews. Born and raised in Belfast, Ireland, Peggy arrived in Canada, where together with Peter, she forged a life for her family, embracing all things Canadian. Belfast was always “back home” but home for Peggy truly meant where her Peter and family were. Peggy was a spirited, kind and loving soul whose generosity was boundless. She will be sorely missed by all. Rest in peace, sweet Peggy. Thank you to the staff at Stouffville Creek Retirement Residence and Markham Stouffville Hospital Palliative Care team for their kindness. Family and friends will be received at Holy Cross Catholic Funeral Home, Entrance – 211 Langstaff Rd. East (Bayview/407). Visitation Monday 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. Funeral Tuesday at 1:30 p.m. Reception to follow at same location. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society . “Mothers hold their children’s hand for just a little while and their hearts forever
