Obituary for Gwendolyn Robertson WIGLEY
"With sorrow in our hearts, we announce that Gwen passed away on Wednesday, October 7, 2015 at the age of 71 after a brief but intense battle with lung cancer.
Gwen is now reunited with her soul mate Chris, who passed away this last February. Beloved mother and mother-in-law to Helen (Eric), Scott (Sherry), adored grandmother to Christina (Jordan), Elizabeth and Claire, dear sister and sister-in-law to John (Irene) and Mary. Gwen was also a caring cousin and aunt to the remainder of her clan.
Gwen will be remembered for her caring nature and generous spirit. In all of her endeavours, whether as a wife, a mother, a grandmother, a sister, a friend, coworker or neighbor during her career in banking or in her many volunteer roles she always left each person or organization better for having known her. Her family was of paramount importance to her and that was reflected in every decision she made. She will be greatly missed by all. Breathe easy now Mom. Xoxo..."
In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Victoria Hospice.

I haven't seen any threads on this subject so thought I should update you.
Just wanted to let everyone know that Gwen passed away on October 7th in Victoria, BC. after a short illness with Stage 4 Lung cancer.
I absolutely adored this women and all the wonderful work she did for Patient Network. Gwen was an incredible women so smart, and knowledgeable but also kind and giving. She was so much a part of the Patient Network as Board Member and Secretary.
I was on her facebook friends list and that is how I found out. If you leave a message her son will see it. I tried to open her obituary but had little success. Google her name and the crematorium will come up and perhaps you will have better luck than I.
I ask that we keep Gwendolyn Robertson Wigley and family in our thoughts and prayers. Gwen, you are now with your soulmate - may you both rest in peace

Gwen was such a wonderful member of this Forum. She talked me into serving on the board and was such a wonderful chair. I was so sorry when she resigned her position but between her and Chris the health issues were just too much. She will be sadly missed.

Oh my! Didn't catch this before. Frankly, didn't know Gwen was dealing with lung cancer. She took on huge tasks for COPD Canada, as did Chris. They are a loss but they're at peace. One just couldn't be without the other, I suppose. Condolences to the family for their loss.
