It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved wife, mother and grandmother, Mary Herrington (nee Stapley). Mary passed away after a courageous battle with cancer on June 27, 2016 at home with her family by her side. She was 81 years old. Mary was born on December 20, 1934 in Alexandria, Ontario. In 1955, she married Edward Herrington and together they had 4 children, Christine, Laura, John and Daniel. She worked as a reception and secretary. She loved history and reading but her greatest joy was her 7 grandchildren, Jessica, David, Emily, Michael, Kayla, Amy and Ryan. She was kind and loyal and welcomed everyone with a hug and a kiss. She will be greatly missed by her family and friends. Her family would like to thank the Personal Support Workers from OSCR and ParaMed for their loving care as well as the palliative care team from CCAC. A funeral mass and reception will be held on Friday, July 15, 2016 at 1pm at St. Matthew's Parish in Oakville. A memorial service and private burial will be held on August 13, 2016 at 10am at St. Columban's Parish in Cornwall, Ontario. Memorial donations in lieu of flowers can be made in Mary's name to Acclaim Health or Oakville Senior Citizens Residence.
