Obituary of Pauline Quinn

Just short of her 95^th birthday, and as a result of natural causes, Pauline Quinn died. She decided to spend Christmas Day with our Dad (Len Quinn, 2006) and all her siblings.

Pauline Quinn was the last standing Montcalm of her generation. To carry on her memory, she leaves behind eight children; Jerry (Diane), Blair (Bonnie), Caroline Hennig (David), Marie Devine (Peter III), Christine Nowak (Brian), Marc, Annabel MacDonald and Clement Rajendra (Subi). Nineteen Grandchildren include; Jay (Marcie), Tyler (Laura), Danica (Darrell), Erin, Elizabeth, Roy (Emily), Marie (Sean), Theresa (Robert), Peter IV (Kelly), Craig (Jenn), Scott (Cindy), Bradford, Rory, Kevin, Marc (Tonia), Claire (Nevin), Sara, Tisha (Dana), Neela (Jeff). Plus 27 Great-Grandchildren. Lovingly remembered by Linda Quinn, Don MacDonald, and her Prince.

Before becoming the matriarch of our family, Mom was a translator for Eatons in downtown Toronto. During WWII, she built Lancaster bombers. She just received her 60^th anniversary C.W.L. pin. Through her unwavering faith, Pauline taught her children to love the Lord, to love each other, and to forgive.
