Eileen Sophia Corner March 24, 1931 – July 12, 2020

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother.
The best way to describe Eileen, was a loving, kind, sweet, gentle, and strong woman.
She was born in Stubbs Village in St Vincent, West Indies in 1931 ,immigrated to Canada in 1953.

She will be sadly missed by her daughters Lana Winnett, Marita Ingrid Clydesdale (Daniel), Juanita Bailey (Sam Davidson). She will also be missed by her four grandchildren, Dan Clydesdale (Kathy) ,Jennifer Clydesdale ( Ty), Michelle Bailey, Michael Bailey. Her four great grandchildren, Ben, Ryan, Nolan, Devon.

Sadly missed by her sisters Cecilia Marshall, and Myrtle Miller.

Predeceased by her partner Gus Viera, and spouse Angus Corner.

She will never be forgotten, she will live on in the hearts of her family.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to Belmont House Toronto

My thoughts and prayers are with you Marita, Lana and Juanita. I unfortunately did not get a chance to know your mother but the stories I have heard makes me feel that we would have really liked each other.. Dan says she would have loved the fact that I only watch black and white movies..lol

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

I can never think of the right words to say during times of grief. But I want you to know that I am thinking of you and I am here for you whenever you need an ear to listen or a hug. Love you all. -Ashley, Jeremy and Briar

Childhood Memory

One of the memories of mom, that stick in my mind is the smell of bread. I can remember waking up Sunday morning to the wonderful aroma of freshly baked bread and sweet buns. That smell is ingrained in me, I will never forget that smell. Because of that wonderful memory I have carried on that tradition. Although I don’t wake up early Sunday morning to bake.
