JASMINE TOOLSEDEI SINGH

SINGH, JASMINE TOOLSEDEI It is with profound sadness that the family of Jasmine Toolsedei Singh announces her passing, on Friday, February 19, 2021, at 84 years of age. Jasmine will be lovingly remembered by her children Roy, Patrick (Bonnie), John, Kenneth, Karen, granddaughter Mellissa (Erin) and great-granddaughter Joey. She was predeceased by her husband John Ramlall (September 15, 1972) and second husband Walter Singh (September 3, 1997).

If asked, the three words that would best describe Jasmine are independent, generous and refined. In her earliest years, at a time when a young woman’s role was scripted to marriage and motherhood, Jasmine decided that she wanted to become a teacher. She did so at the age of 17, just one example of her independent spirit.

Later in life, when she was faced with raising 5 children on her own, she set her mind to getting a driver’s license, a stable job and creating financial stability for herself and her family. Jasmine faced many hurdles in her life, but she was always able to summon the courage and determination to keep clearing those hurdles. Jasmine welcomed people into her home and into her heart. She shared wonderful meals and wise counsel with close friends and colleagues, her children’s schoolmates and relatives, who occasionally stayed with the family.

Her abundant generosity was extended to all who knew her. And she was a role model to many. Her impeccable sense of fashion and her strict adherence to proper etiquette inspired countless friends, family and acquaintances. Thank you to Personal Support Workers, Jackie and Marilyn and the Palliative Care Team at Headwaters Hospital who helped to take such good care of her. Jasmine’s family will be holding a private funeral service.

To celebrate Jasmine, and share our stories of the impact she had on our lives, a memorial service will be held at a later date. Donations in her memory can be made to Lupus Canada. Please visit the Book of Memories at www.wardfuneralhomes.com
