CHAMBERLAIN, Eileen (née Smith)
Mrs. Eileen Chamberlain, the Matriarch of our family has left this earth in her 93rd year. She is predeceased by her husband William Russell Chamberlain (1992). Beloved mother of Donna Marie Church, Peter Robert Chamberlain, Trevor Chamberlain and Suzy Chamberlain Taylor. Dear grandmother of Rob, Scott, Jennifer, Jill, Jason and Graham. Known as GG to her great-grandchildren Justin, Andrew, Evan, Ben, Elliot, Alexander, Audrey and Bertie. Friend to many – with a smile to offer always. Eileen came to Canada as a war bride in 1946 and settled in Guelph. She started Guelph’s first day care, the Jack and Jill Nursery in 1954, which is still running today and was a founding member of the Guelph Little Theatre. Such a life so humbly lived and deeply loved. In honour of Eileen’s wishes, cremation has taken place. A private family service has taken place. A celebration of Eileen’s life will be held at a later date. Please contact Suzy Chamberlain Taylor for more details (416-709-4725). In lieu of flowers, memorial donations to the Guelph Humane Society or the Donkey Sanctuary would be greatly appreciated by the family. Online donations and condolences can be made at www.gilbertmacintyreandson.com. Never forgotten, always loved.
