Eulah will be missed by her many nieces and nephews.
Eulah was a devoted mother, who raised 3 children.
A stylish and elegant woman, Eulah was an exceptional homemaker and avid gardener. Wherever she went, Eulah made lifelong friends who she loved to entertain at her home, the cottage or in Florida.
Once her children were grown, Eulah went back to school to become a hairdresser. She managed and ran her own beauty salon in Uxbridge and later managed a motel in Ocala, Florida, where she and Howard divided their time.
Eulah was a member of the Trinity United Church and Eastern Star.
She touched many hearts with her kindness and compassion. She was always quick to help others in need.
Many friends and family often commented on Eulah's remarkable memory. She loved telling stories of the old days to friends and family.
Eulah had an indomitable and courageous spirit. She never gave up, stayed positive and always faced life's challenges head on.
The family would like to thank Eulah's many friends for their support and kindness throughout the years. Special thanks to Evelyn Murphy for her devoted care and Bonnie Rynard for her many kindnesses.
We would also like to thank the Nurses, PSWs and Staff at the Amica Retirement Home where Eulah lived for the last 10 years.
A private family service will be held, due to current restrictions.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Trinity United Church in Uxbridge, Heart & Stroke Foundation or a CHARITY of your choice.
