Obituary

Passed Peacefully away after a wonderful life, Rosa May Butler in her 88th year.

Predeceased by her father and mother, William and Martha Taylor; brothers Ray Taylor (Joane), Gordon Taylor (Shirley), and George Taylor (Ann); sisters Ina Davis (Frank), and Lenora Davis (Bud).

Leaving her loving husband Joseph Butler, after more than 67 years of blissful marriage; also her two sons, Gary Butler (Janet), Joe Butler (Helena); granddaughters Jay Butler (Andrew Harvey), and Melissa Butler; grandsons Chad Butler (Heather), Adam Butler (Melissa Kelland);

great granddaughters, Keira, Hanna, Rachel, and Taylor; sister Joan Broomfield (David); special nieces Pamela Pike (Abe), Michelle Broomfield (Darin), and nephew Angus Taylor (Judy); plus a large family of nieces and nephews; Sara O’Brien, mother of Rachel and Taylor .

Rosa was a very caring woman who loved her family unconditionally. Always helping others, she was a truly kind and loving woman. In her final hours she spent much of her time knitting caps for newborn babies that were donated to the Janeway hospital. Rosa was an inspiration to the entire family, and to all who met her.

Thank you from the entire family to all staff at Tiffany Village who provided Rosa with the very best care during her stay. The Butler Family is very grateful to Doreen, Lauren, Rebecca, Miranda, Head Nurse Karen, and Dr. Coleman. All are very special people who kept Rosa comfortable during her time at Tiffany.

Cremation has taken place. Donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society, SPCA, the Gathering Place or charity of one’s choice.

A special private family celebration remembering Rosa will be held at a later date.

Joe and family, I feel connected in sadness, to you and your family, at the loss of your lovely wife Rosa. Since first meeting you and family in the mid 60’s I have always considered her as a friendly and gracious lady. Please accept my sincere condolences.

It was a privilege to have had the opportunity to care for and spend time with Mrs. Butler. She was a remarkable woman and an outstanding example of what a wife, mother and grandmother should be. She was never happier than when sharing a story about her children or grandchildren or recalling a memory from a lifetime of love with Mr. Butler. She gently offered advice on everything from gardening to raising children and it was valuable advice.
Anyone who was life was lucky enough to be touched by her presence will feel this loss. My deepest sympathies to Mr. Butler, her sons and daughters in law, grandchildren, great grandchildren and her sister Joan.
