It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Barbara Mae Almasi
nee Brintnell on Wednesday, April 26, 2017, in her 81st year. Barb
passed away in Goderich of an aortic aneurysm. Cherished wife and friend for 46
years of Alex Almasi, loving mother to David (Kendra) of Toronto and amazing
grandmother to Matthew. Loving sister of Paul (Betty) Brintnell of Olds,
Alberta. Missed by her many nieces, nephews and all family. Predeceased by her
parents Clifford and Mae Brintnell and her brothers Don, Keith and Murray
Brintnell.
Barb had a huge and loving heart and she touched deeply her family, her friends and everyone who knew her. Barb’s zest for life was unmatched. Living life whether it be with family, travelling with friends, bowling, Tai-Chi, the Lioness Club or cards with “the girls” was what made Barb happy and we are forever grateful for our time with her. She was much loved for her dedication to her family, her kindness and patience and her ever present sense
of humour. Barb will forever be missed by her family and friends. A private family graveside service will be held. In lieu of flowers, donations in Barb’s memory can be made to the London Health Sciences Orthopaedic Patient Care Fund (#7048003) online at www.lhsf.ca or London Health Sciences Foundation Orthopaedic Patient Care Fund.

Barb was a very dear friend for the past 40 years. I will miss her tremendously. She was an inspiration an a joy, and she always seemed to ‘pop in’ at the best times for a visit. Usually when I needed a friend to chat with. Always ready to help whenever and however she was needed. She was a treasure with her ready smile and words of wisdom. We shared many things including bowling years ago and Lioness. It was a privilege to know her and we send sincere condolences to Alex, David and the rest of her family. Dorothy & Art.

I am so sorry to hear of Barb’s passing. I knew Barb from when my family owned Bedard’s Grocery on the corner of her street. Always remember her as such a kind, loving person. You are in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
