Sarah Edith Blackmore

April 14, 1949 - June 16, 2023

The family of the late Sarah Edith Blackmore announces her passing at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre – Palliative Care, in Toronto, Ontario, on Friday June 16th, 2023, at the age of 74 years.

Sarah was born in Jeffrey’s, Newfoundland on April 14th, 1949, to the late Obediah and late Alice (nee Baggs) Fortune. She is predeceased also by her nephew Duane Wilson Miles and her sister-in-law Ruth Fortune. Sarah leaves behind her loving and devoted husband of 47 years, Gerald Blackmore, and her daughter, Jennifer Blackmore.

Sarah always loved her trips to Maine, USA, and Newfoundland, Canada. Spending time with her family and friends was always dear to her heart. She was a gentle, caring and kind person who touched many lives. She was loved and respected by all who knew her, and she will be greatly missed but never forgotten.

In keeping with Sarah’s wishes, a Cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Life will be held at a later date in Jeffrey’s, Newfoundland.

Thank you for the wonderful memories, growing up with your daughter and fantastic trips to the east coast and visits to Toronto. We come from a strong family with a bond that is a blessing many families today only read about or see on tv. That bond stretches over great distances and remains solidified no matter how much time passes before we see each other again. Aunt Sarah you were a sweet, kind, and loving woman. Your strength during your difficult fight has been a shining example of courage. Your struggle is over, and so is your pain. Rest easy, knowing that you are loved and will be missed by all. Jennifer and Uncle Gerald, your strength during these difficult years has not gone unnoticed. Your efforts, your support, your dedication -all you have done has been incredible! You went above and beyond, you did it right, and you set an example of how a family takes care of it's own. Well done. Take all the time you need to heal. Stay strong! I love you, and I look forward to seeing you again soon.
