Passed away peacefully at Lisaard House, Cambridge on Monday September 2, 2019 at the age of 96 years.
Greta road her bicycle to and from work for decades and then later- to the golf course until she was almost 80. She was an avid fan of tennis, golf and baseball. She loved playing bridge, scrabble and doing her daily crossword. She read the newspaper and checked the stock reports daily. She loved reading, travelling, gardening, cooking and baking. Her canning specialties were jams, pickles and neon-coloured relish. Greta had a strong will and an opinion about many things. She was known to enjoy a beer and a cigarette right up until her last days.
She was the dear wife of the late Arthur Hodgins (1981). Loving mother of Ronald Hodgins (Lynn Charbonneau), Gregory Hodgins (Amy Malone) and Lori Roussakis (George). Proud grandmother of Shaun, Jeffrey & Shannon Hodgins; Alicia Dombrose and Danielle Mussara (DJ). Proud great grandmother of Taylor Hodgins, Arriana and Alexis Dombrose; Salvador and Carmen Mussara. Predeceased by one sister, Erica (Earl) Shantz.
A special thank you to all the staff and volunteers at Lissard House, for their commitment and kindness shown towards our Mom and family.
Cremation and a private family gathering will take place. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Lisaard House as expressions of sympathy. You may wish to leave messages and condolences for the family at tricitycremations.com or 519.772.1237.
