Peacefully in Ottawa, in her 91st year with her daughter Alicia by her side. Beloved wife of the late Ray Carruthers, adored Mum, much loved aunt to family and friends around the world and many at home. Mum embraced life - travelling around the world with Dad in his air force career, my career and her volunteerism in the community where she landed. Home was her beloved cottage at Aylen Lake. A Celebration of Life will be held at Beechwood’s National Memorial Centre, 280 Beechwood Avenue, Ottawa, Ontario on Saturday, April 9, 2022 at 1:00PM. No funeral colours - bright colours welcome at the service to honour Mum. In memoriam donations to the Ottawa Humane Society, May Court Club of Ottawa or charity of your choice appreciated.

Dear Alicia,
Although we never met your mother, we got to know you pretty well and we saw how devoted you were to your mum. She must have been someone very special to raise a daughter like you. Take care dear Alicia and accept our hugs and sympathy. Hélène and Claude

A wonderful lady who we enjoyed meeting over the years. She loved her trips to Barbados and to spending time with all Alicia's friends.
RIP
Dear Alicia, Bettie and I…
Dear Alicia,

Dear Alicia, we were deeply saddened to hear of the passing of your beautiful mom. Nancy sparkled with life and love and laughter - a true 'global citizen' and a role model for living life well. She was fiercely proud of you, Alicia, and you were a loving, loyal daughter to the very end. No parent could ask for more. We send you our love, hugs and sympathy, dear friend, and we're keeping you and Nancy close in our thoughts and hearts. Kate and David xx
