PALLOPSON, Sharon Lynne -
 November 23, 1943 – April 6, 2012
On a perfect spring day at her farm, after a spirited battle that showed us what courage and determination really is, we mourn the loss of our most beautiful Sharon.
Sharon’s greatest joys in life were her two boys, Chad (Jennifer Cole) and Blair Pallopson (Tanya), for whom she was the most amazing mother anyone could have. She was a very loving Nana to Charlie, Sophie, and Henry Pallopson. Her motherly love was warmly extended to Jessica McConnel l (Toby) and Ryan Cipolla (Jennie) and to their children Liam, Ella, and Leo McConnell and Luke and Lilly CIpolla.
Sharon is deeply mourned by Dr. Priit Pallopson with whom she led a beautiful family life and by Mr. Craig Evans with whom she shared a life of great adventure.
Sharon was born in London, Ontario, the daughter of the late Jean and Clark Daly and sister of Daphne. She was the beloved big sister to Jan Mollenhauer (John) Lovingly remembered by the Eistrat, Evans, Smale and Mollenhauer families. Dearest friend and companion to Nana, the late Olga Runk.
Sharon led a life of great accomplishments and talents, among them nurse, antique dealer, educator, entrepreneur, horse breeder, athlete and world traveller. However her greatest mark was as a true and beautiful friend to countless people, drawn to her by her pure kindness and always welcome smile.
The family would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation for the wonderful care Sharon received from so many loving friends, caregivers and in particular to Dr. Kathleen Michalski and the staff at RVH.
In keeping with Sharon’s love of animals and her generous nature, donations in her honour may be made to either of the Orillia OSPA or The Sharing Place.

WEILAND, Verlin Eugene 'Vern' - Retired RCASC Chief Warrant Officer “NIL SINE LABORE“
 Vern passed away very suddenly on Friday, April 6th, 2012 at the RVH in Barrie with his family beside him at the age of 78.
Vern was born in Medicine Hat, Alberta on June 18, 1933, the first born son of John and Olga Weiland. Vern was raised in Alberta until the age of 17, attending schools in Black Diamond, Wetaskiwin and Calgary.
He joined the Canadian Army on January 14, 1952 and later the same year was deployed and served in the Korean War. Vern spent 28 years in the Canadian Forces, serving in locations such as Lahr, Germany; London, England; Gagetown, New Brunswick and CFB Borden in Ontario. While serving in Base Borden Vern met and married Marg Ellis of Utopia in 1959 - they lovingly celebrated 53 wedding anniversaries.
He was a loving father to Steve (Lisa), Sandra and Susan (Don) and had five cherished grandchildren, Danielle, Samantha, Courtney, Mitchell and Taylor. He is also survived by his sister Barbara Tautfest and brother John (Heather) both of Calgary.
Vern retired from the military in 1979 and bought a home in Angus (as close as possible to his beloved Circled Pine Golf Club). He spent the next 15 years working at the Ammunition Depot in Angus and retired from this career in 1995.
He cherished the friendships made over the years at Circled Pine Golf Club and the golfing winters in Florida. The loss of his sharp sense of humour is going to leave a very large void in our lives.
A service celebrating Vern's life will be held in Barrie on Saturday, April 14th.
If desired, in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Crohn's & Colitis Society of Canada or charity of your choice.
