It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Margot Holmes (née Paul), with her daughters by her side, on Sunday July 5, 2020 at the age of 89.  Beloved wife of the late Daniel McNamara Holmes.  Loving mother of Daniel (Nicole), Robert (Mary K), Kathleen (Matthew), Christopher, Alan (Denise) and Angela.  She will be missed by her 10 grandchildren.  “GG” will also be missed by her 6 great-grandchildren, as well as her sister Dona (late Leon Massel), her brother the late George Paul and many friends.  A special thank you to Dr. Farey as well as the staff of Oakpark Retirement Home.  In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Margot’s name to the Parkinson Canada.

Due to the health risks during this pandemic, there will be no funeral service.  Margot’s ashes will be buried with her late husband Daniel at the National Military Cemetery at Beechwood. In keeping with social distancing guidelines, we suggest that anyone wishing to pay their respects do so at the gravesite, as of Friday, July 10, with their own family,at a time of their choosing.  If you need information to do so, please contact Beechwood Funeral, Cemetery and Cremation Services, 613-741-9530.

So sorry for your loss. Every time we met your mom, she always had a sweet smile and was so pleasant to talk to. She always made people smile.

For many years, I lived very close to the Holmes family. Margot was a beautiful mother, devoted person and an avid gardener. Much appreciation goes to Angela (my daughter Margaret's best friend and playmate) for the care she gave her mother, especially the 101 pandemic days she spent with her. My heartfelt sympathy to all.
