CORNBOROUGH, Barbara

Barbara (nee Sumner) born March 11, 1912 in Abbotsford, BC passed away peacefully in her 94th year on April 3, 2006.

A devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, she is survived by her loving husband Jack of 64 years, daughter Jill (Roger), son Brian (Susan), grandchildren Leslie, Christine ( Robert), Chris, Jane, Lindsay, Scott, Kylie ( Tim), and great grandchildren Mackenzie, Derek, and Hunter.

Barbara’s early life was spent in the Abbotsford area where she worked in the Post Office before marrying Jack, a Royal Bank Manager. Her married life took her to North Vancouver, Kitimat, Nelson, Victoria, and finally to Qualicum Beach where she spent her final years at the Eagle Park Health Care Facility. 

She was someone who gained the friendship of many through her quick wit and thoughtfulness. Her dedication to others was shown through her involvement in the Anglican Church Womens Auxiliary.  Her spirit touched all who knew her.

A memorial service will be held on Tuesday, April 11th, at 11 a.m. at St. Marks Anglican Church, 138 W. Hoylake Rd., Qualicum Beach BC,V9K 1K3 .
