    Notes:

    FLAVELLE, Grace Lindsay "Daidy" (nee Alcorn)

    It is with profound sadness that the girls announce their Mother's passing in Galt, Ontario, on July 12, 2007. Daidy, was born October 3, 1918, in Toronto. She spent her early years in Toronto and Quebec and attended school in Rothesay, New Brunswick, at Netherwood. During the Second World War, she proudly served in the Women's Royal Canadian Naval Service (WRENS). At the end of the war she met and married the love of her life, James Flavelle and moved to Galt, Ontario. Her commitment to family, faith and friends was constantly demonstrated in her devotion to her parents, brother, husband, daughters and grandchildren, to Trinity Anglican Church and her many wonderful friendships, in her community and beyond. Daidy worked tirelessly as a volunteer and eventually as Patient Services Coordinator at Cambridge Memorial Hospital. Her strength of character, love of laughter and extraordinary loyalty and integrity found her surrounded by the warmth of those she touched. She will be sorely missed. Predeceased by her husband James, (October 1969); her parents, Doris and Harold Alcorn; her brother, Douglas H. Alcorn and her sons-in-law, Paul D. Schram and Rufus L. Savage. She is survived by her three daughters, Martha Flavelle-Schram, Lindsay (Jamie Richards), Sheila Savage and her grandchildren, Kimberley (Robert Delius) of England and Jay Richards of Toronto. A private family service and interment has taken place at Trinity Anglican Cemetery. A Memorial Service will be held on Thursday, September 27, 2007, at 2 p.m., in the Trinity Anglican Church, Galt (Cambridge), Ontario.

    Notes:

    FLAVELLE-SCHRAM, Martha Mary Henderson Peacefully at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre on Tuesday, October 9, 2018 in her 71st year. Martha Mary, precious first daughter of the late James and Daidy (Alcorn) Flavelle. Dearest mother of Kimberley Delius and her son-in-law Rob of Bath, U.K. Reunited with her beloved husband Paul Schram (d.1994). Loving and loved sister of Lindsay Richards (Jamie) and Sheila Savage (John Jacques). Caring and loving aunt of Jay Richards. She will be lovingly remembered by both the Alcorn and Flavelle families. Martha was blessed to have so many incredibly loving, supportive and devoted friends in her life. Mum was born in Montreal, Quebec and grew up in Galt, Ontario (Cambridge). She had an outstanding, thirty-five year career at Sunnybrook Hospital where she thrived; culminating her work as Administrative Assistant to now retired Dr. Barry McLellan, Director of Emergency Services, Base Hospital Program (Paramedic Program) and Trauma Research. While in Toronto, Mum was an active member of the Junior League and Garden Club. After her retirement she returned to Galt to enjoy her home, her garden, her friends, her painting and her avid interest in reading biographies, history books and novels. She was also dedicated to the daily news and the weather forecast! Mum was our family historian; she could relate stories about distant and current members of the family, on both sides. Mum lived a selfless life with dignity, grace and humour; words cannot describe how deeply she will be missed. Martha's life was celebrated with Visitation at the T. Little Funeral Home (519-623-1290) and a private family service and interment. As expressions of sympathy, please consider a donation in Martha's memory to Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre.
