Obituary of Marie Elizabeth Chamberlain

Passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, July 24, 2024 at Grand River Hospital, Kitchener, in her 82nd year.

Predeceased by her spouse Marcia C. Smith. Born in the East Midlands of England, Marie trained as a nurse in England before beginning her lifelong adventure in midwifery and maternal care leading her to travels across the globe and to the extreme north, east and west of Canada. A lifelong learner, she earned a PhD later in life. Raised on a farm, she was a great lover of animals and nature. Sadly missed by friends and family across Canada, the UK, and Australia to name a few. Special thanks to Rosemary and to the many carers (Eden) and kind neighbours and friends at her residence on Belmont St., Kitchener for assisting her during her health challenges.

A life well lived, sleep in peace.

As per Marie’s wishes, her body has been donated to science. A private family service will be held at a later (fall) date.
