Obituary of Madeleine MacGregor

MacGREGOR, Madeleine Carole (nee Randall) - Following a recent relentless illness, we sadly announce that Madeleine passed away on Friday December 9, 2011 at Juravinski Hospital (Hamilton) with the comfort of family at her side. Madeleine was the treasured wife and close companion of her beloved husband Reg in their 50th year of marriage. Cherished mother of daughter Laura and her husband Mikiya, son David and his wife Kimberly. Beloved sister of Glenda Wallace and brother-in-law Garry MacGregor and his wife Betty. Much loved Aunt of Gordon MacGregor (Evelyn), Glendon MacGregor (Jean). Loving Aunt to Michael and Daniel Wallace and Great Aunt to Ian, Sandra, Connor and Manius MacGregor. She will be greatly missed by cousins, extended family, neighbours and many friends. A graduate of the Mack School of Nursing, Madeleine recently enjoyed with her classmates their 50th year celebration. She enjoyed a variety of nursing roles in her career and in retirement found fulfillment as a volunteer with Hospice Niagara. In addition to many travel experiences, her family, friends and neighbours, home and garden were high priorities. Many thanks are extended to the nurses at St. Catharines General Hospital for their excellent care and also to the entire medical staff at Juravinski Hospital for their professional expertise and compassionate care of all of us. In accordance with Madeleine's wishes, cremation has taken place. If desired, memorial donations may be made to Hospice Niagara, The Canadian Celiac Association or charity of choice.
