Edna May ROSE

EBBITT, Edna May (nee Rose) Died peacefully at the Glebe Centre on Saturday, November 19, 2005. She had been a resident of the Glebe Centre for the last two years. Edna was born in Montreal in 1916, where she was active in radio and taught synchronized swimming. She has resided in Ottawa for the past 35 years. Later in life, one of Edna's greatest joys was ballroom dancing. She and her late husband, Bill, regularly attended dancing classes and found great enjoyment in this activity. She loved her family first and will always, always be remembered for her loving smile. Edna was preceded in death by her husband of 56 years, Bill Ebbitt, and her brother, Johnny Rose. Edna is survived by her son Jim, of Westlake Village, California. Edna will be sadly missed by her grandchildren Michael and Tim, as well as many friends. Many thanks to the Glebe Centre staff for their dedication and loving care beyond the call of duty.
