Obituary of Kathleen Elizabeth Wile

Age 82, of Leminster, Hants Co., passed away peacefully Tuesday, January 19, 2016 at her son Kevin’s in Upper Tantallon. Born February 20, 1933 in Leminster, she was a daughter of the late Cyril and Emma “Jean” (Mason) Wile. Kay was a very strong woman. She was a “sweetheart” and didn’t ever want to be a bother to anyone. She always had a smile for family and friends and thoroughly enjoyed her family and spending time with them. She was very involved in All Saints Anglican Church, Leminster and was a member of the Women’s Institute quilting group. Although she may not have enjoyed it much, Kay knit socks and mittens for her family. She also from time to time may have enjoyed a ride or two on a motor bike or the four wheeler but she never became a fan of being out on the water in a boat. Kay is survived by her daughters, Debbie (Peter) Anthony, Brooklyn, Queens Co.; Lois (Fred) Hines, Vaughan; Heather (Steven) Greeson, Whitsett, North Carolina; sons, Floyd (Donna), Leminster; Ellis (Judy), Vaughan; Kevin (Vicki Gesner), Upper Tantallon; grandchildren, Neil (Penny) and David (Hillary) Benedict, Ryan (Jennifer) and Alicia Wile, Ashley (Ash) Furrow and Kristin (Justin) Lunn, Karla (Kia Riddel) and Keri-Ann (John Borden) Hines, Ben and Luke Greeson; step grandson, Tim Gesner (Amanda Bentley); great-grandchildren, Morgan and Tori Benedict; Rebecca Eagles; Sophie and Piper Wile; Brayden and Kassidy Carter; step great-grandchildren, Elizabeth, Lilly, Anna and Lucy Gesner; brother, Willard (Erma) Wile. She was predeceased by her husband, Cecil Wile; daughter, Catherine Elizabeth in infancy, son, Blaine; sister, Ruth Hiltz and brothers, Trueman, Basil, Roland and Henry.
