    Mary Lois DUCLOS

    DUCLOS, Mary Lois (nee Winslow-Spragge)
    June 5, 1924 ? March 19, 2017
    Our beloved Mary passed away peacefully in her sleep on March 19, 2017 at the Lakeshore General Hospital. She was in her 93rd year, having been born in Montreal on June 5, 1924.
    Mary was a ray of sunshine. She sought and found the good in everything and she shared her love of life with us all (every day). As time went on, she found great comfort in both Mother Nature and her own serene quiet meditations, often while playing the piano.
    Mary was a devoted mother, wife, community volunteer, musician, artist, athlete and a friend to so many. She was a direct descendant of Edward Winslow, three-time Governor of Plymouth, after coming to North American on the Mayflower in 1620; Mary and her siblings donated the Winslow Papers to the UNB. She was proud of her United Empire Loyalist roots and further, her ties to her great-uncle, George Mercer Dawson. She grew up in Westmount and spent summers in Como until moving permanently to Hudson 1976.
    Mary was predeceased by her beloved husband of 69 years, C. Duncan Duclos, her two sons, Victor Reginald Duclos and Christopher Duncan Duclos and her father Edward and mother Lois Sybil (Harrington) Winslow-Spragge. She was the youngest child in her family and each of her siblings (Edward, Alice, Anne and Ruth) has sadly passed on in recent years. Mary will be deeply missed by her son Brian Edward Duclos (Denise Brown) of Calgary and daughter Mary Lorraine Duclos of Vancouver, her daughters-in-law Louise (Crossley) Duclos and Judy Gilmore, her many nieces and nephews, her grandchildren: Ryan Duclos of Calgary, Samantha Stephens (Mark) of Dallas, and Amanda Bongiovanni-Duclos of Calgary, and her great-granddaughters Mikayla and Emma Stephens.
    The family would like to express deepest gratitude and thanks to the wonderful team of caregivers (Judi, Caiti, Alfie, Cyndi, Erin, Claire, Diane, Sue and Heather), NOVA Hudson nurses, the CSLC, 1st Responders and Dr. L. Welik, who so kindly attended to all Mary's needs in her final years.
    A celebration of her life will take place on May 13, 2017 at St. Mary's Church in Hudson at 2:00 p.m. For those wishing to do so, please make a donation, in her memory to: NOVA Hudson at www.novahudson.com or to St. Mary's Church.
