July 20, 1927 - January 5, 2022
Winefride was born & raised in Chorley, Lancashire, England. After her schooling she would work for the British Leyland company before enlisting in the English Women's Land Army. During her service in the Land Army she was to meet a young Welshman named Bryn Jones. She would laughingly tell us it was not love at first sight, but Bryn didn't give up, and would eventually win her heart & her hand. They would marry in 1949, a marriage that was to last over 65 years.
In 1957 they would emigrate to Canada, seeking better opportunity for their young & growing family. After stops in Langley, Greendale & Sardis they would find their much beloved home 'with the million dollar view' on Promontory, where they would reside for many years.
Win was blessed with remarkable health for over ninety years before dementia stole her from us. The family would like to thank the staff at Heritage Village for assisting her in her last few weeks. She is survived by daughters Rhiannon (Arthur) of Point Roberts WA, & Carys of Chilliwack BC, son Clwyd (Joanne) of Popkum BC, granddaughter Hafina (Simeon) of Brooklyn NY, & sister Vera of Chorley UK.
We thank you, we miss you & we will love you always.
