In memory of

Margot Elizabeth Sundquist

October 6, 1942 -  February 13, 2023

After a lengthy struggle with dementia, Margot passed away at the Isabel and Arthur Meighen Manor on February 13, 2023 at the age of 80. Beloved sister to Kenneth Sundquist. Predeceased by father Sigurd, mother Janna and brother Rolf. She will be sadly missed by her dear friends Glen and Reva Pierson and by many friends from her nursing days.

Margot was born in Goderich, Ont. on October 6, 1942. She grew up in Richmond Hill, Ont. and attended Richmond Hill High School.

Margot trained as a nurse at the Royal Victoria Hospital, Montreal (R.N.'64). She later attended Dalhousie University (B.A.'81) and University of Toronto -OISE (M.Ed.'88). Margot worked for many years as a clinical nurse specialist in psychiatry at Scarborough Centenary Hospital. She enjoyed travel, skiing, quilting, crafts and theatre.

Many thanks to the staff at Coombs Place, Meighen Manor for their kind care and support over the years.

There will be no funeral service. Should you wish, a charitable donation in Margot's name to Alzheimer's Society of Ontario would be appreciated. Burial has taken place with arrangements entrusted to the Elgin Mills Funeral and Cemetery Centre.

I have sent the obituary to our class website - it will be 60 years in 2024 that we graduated from the Royal Vic, and almost that many years since I have seen Margot. I had heard that she suffered from Alzheimer’s, so it is a sad end to an accomplished nurse. May she rest in peace.

I was sorry to learn of Margot's passing. I attended Richmond Hill High School and Margot was in some of my classes. Although we went our separate ways after graduation, I was pleased to read of her accomplishments and the full life she enjoyed. Rest in peace, Margot.
