Sheila Ann Rose

Peacefully on June 11, 2024, Sheila Rose passed away one day after her 86th birthday. 

Sheila was born on June 10, 1938, in Sudbury, Ontario to Rosemary and Emmett Gregg. She married the love of her life, Mervyn Rose on May 7, 1960. They lived a full life of travelling and making many friends with Military transfers and welcoming 3 children, Jacqueline, Vickie and Scott. 

After a lengthy hospital stay, Sheila left us to go meet back up with Dad, who predeceased her on July 28, 2017. She was also predeceased by her parents Rosemary and Emmett Gregg; siblings Suzanne Gregg, Michael Gregg, Catherine Gregg, Patricia (nee Gregg) and Harold Dunford, Gail (nee Gregg) and Henny Hartgers; in-laws Iva and Gordon Rose, Keith and Dorraine Rose, Eileen Rose, Donna Atkins and Judith Cooper.

She is survived by her loving family; Jacqueline (nee Rose) and Carl Wermie, Vickie Rose and Vincent Gauthier and Scott Rose. Also survived by grandchildren Christopher and Julie Wermie, Jennifer (nee Wermie) and Andrew Volans. She spent many special times with her great grandchildren Reid, Brylee, Sloan, Ethan, Paisley and Molly who all referred to her as GGMA. She is also survived by her sister Brenda (nee Gregg) and Norm Johnston; in-laws Ron Rose, Ron Atkins, Ginette Lefort, Doris Rose and Harvey Cooper along with numerous nieces, nephews and special friends. 

Sheila had requested no funeral, but the family will gather later this summer in Port Hope, ON where she will be interred into the columbarium with Dad.
