Obituary for Ellen Louise Stewart

Ellen Louise  Stewart
Ellen Louise Stewart (nee Shiels)

With deep sadness we announce the peaceful passing of Ellen, in her 90th year, on Easter Sunday, April 1, 2018. Ellen was predeceased by her beloved husband of 52 years, William (Bill). She was a loving mother to her sons Alastair (Bonnie), David (predeceased) and Douglas (Linda), as well as a cherished grandma to Kaylee, Colin, Brianna and Matthew.
Ellen, a long time Burlington resident, was proud of her Scottish heritage. Her passions included baking (shortbread), knitting, sewing, reading, traveling, singing and dancing to music. She always enjoyed sharing her many stories with good friends and family.
In accordance with Ellen’s wishes, her ashes will be scattered alongside her dear husband at Bayview Cemetery, in a private family ceremony later this spring. She would appreciate, in lieu of flowers, donations in support of the Christmas Day Community Dinner, co-founded by her in 2008, an outreach program sponsored by her church, Burlington East Presbyterian, or a charity of your choice. The family would like to thank Dr. Hack and the medical staff on 6 South at Joseph Brant Hospital for their compassionate care.
