HEATHCOTE, JULIA FRANCES
(May 10th 1942 – March 18th 2018)
Very sorely missed, loved and loving, wife, mother and grandmother.
Throughout her life, Julia had many interests and passions. Her life journey began in England. She grew up and married in Kenya, emigrating to Canada to begin a new life. She travelled the world and “paddled her feet” in its’ many oceans. Julia was an active member of the Lanark County Drum Circle, the Carleton Place Labyrinth Committee, and the Fung Loy Kok Taoist Tai Chi. She volunteered for many years in the local schools and the Carleton Place Public Library.
On the morning of Sunday March 18th, 2018, Julia slipped away and rejoined her husband to resume their shared voyages.
Julia will be greatly missed by her family and friends. She has touched the lives of many and had a real knack for finding the best people to surround herself with.
Friends are invited to visit the family at the Zion-Memorial United Church, 37 Franklin Street, Carleton Place, Ontario, on Saturday March 31st, 2018 from 1 p.m. until time of service at 2:30 followed by a reception and tea time upstairs.
In lieu of flowers, donations to SOS Children’s Villages (in Kenya) 200-244 Rideau Street, Ottawa, ON K1N 5Y3, the Carleton Place Hospital Foundation and the Fung Loy Kok Taoist Tai Chi would be greatly appreciated. The family would also like to encourage people to support the Lanark County Drum Circle (please see Debby Lytle: [email protected] ) and the Carleton Place Labyrinth Committee (please see Christine Hume: [email protected] ) which were such great contributors to our mothers’ happiness.
Baamaapii – Until we meet again…
