Eva-Marie Marchioro (nee McDougall)
March 12, 1947 – August 20, 2009 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our much-loved wife, mother, daughter, grandmother, sister and friend. Eva-Marie was predeceased by her father Hugh and is survived by her loving husband of 30 years Domenico, sons David (Corrie) and Michael (Lindsay) and her treasured grandchildren Micah, Simone and Jaelyn. She also leaves to mourn her mother Alma McDougall, siblings, Ian (Amy), Rita (Aldo) Marchioro, Annette (Ron) La Brosse, Alma-Louise (Michael) Norris and Paul; her Aunt Rita (Jean-Yves), in-laws in Italy and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. Eva-Marie graduated from VGH School of Nursing class of September ’69. She was a compassionate and well-respected nurse working at VGH, MSJ and St. Paul’s hospitals. She was a dedicated BCNU steward, a very talented quilter and a caring soul. She was a gracious hostess who loved entertaining and spending time with friends and family. Eva-Marie was a woman of great faith who always believed that God gave us only the trials He knew we could manage. Since her diagnosis of brain cancer in February she never asked why me, she asked only for God’s grace to help her through this with dignity and that she die at home. Eva-Marie was received into the arms of Her Lord, at home, surrounded by her loving family. The family wishes to thank all of the dedicated nurses, physicians and caregivers involved in her care. Prayers Monday, August 24, 2009 at 7pm and Mass of Christian Burial on Tuesday the 25th, 10am at St. Helen’s Church, 3960 Triumph Street, Burnaby. Burial at Forest Lawn Cemetery and reception to follow. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in Eva-Marie’s name to help find a cure at donate.bccancerfoundation.com/goto/eva-marie
