SQUIRE: Betty (Mawhinney) of St. Marys and formerly of Granton and London

Sadly, our mom, Betty Squire of St. Marys passed away peacefully at the age of 95 on April 23, 2024. Betty was an only child of Jim and Rotha Mawhinney. She will be lovingly remembered by us four girls, Sharon (Wilson) George, Marion (Jim) Blake, Colleen (Mike) Wraith, and Valerie (Chris) Bradley and her many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great grandchildren. Our Dad, Harry Squire, preceded her in death in 1999. Never too old to fall in love again, she and her companion Jerry Stapleton enjoyed several years together until sadly Jerry passed away in 2017. Mom enjoyed watching all sports on TV but was a faithful Maple Leafs, Blue Jays, and London Knights fan. She was never one for sentiment and had a knack for telling it like it is. One might call her feisty. We loved and will never forger her tenacity, wit, and amazing sense of humour. Our family sends a special thank you to Dr. Burley and the staff at Kingsway Lodge for their care and compassion. In keeping with Mom’s wishes a private family graveside service was held at Granton Cemetery. Haskett Funeral Home, LUCAN entrusted with arrangements. Donations to Kingsway Lodge would be appreciated by the family.


Condolences for the family of “SQUIRE: Betty (Mawhinney) of St. Marys and formerly of Granton and London”

Condolence from Brenda Schroeder on April 27th, 2024 1:01 AM

Your Mom certainly had a twinkle in her eye and yes, always a sense of humour.

Wendy already mentioned the birthday celebrations that our Mom’s shared. It was a good visit that we had at the last one with lots of laughs and reminiscing. I’m so glad we were able to make that happen.

I’m sure there will be many stories that will surface, some you’ve heard and some maybe not. :)
Enjoy them all!

Our sincere condolences for your loss – never a good time no matter what age.

Hugs,
Brenda & Steve Schroeder
