March 4, 1923 to April 29, 2017

It is with great sadness we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Jean Elizabeth (Wedlake, Ellacott) Berry on Saturday April 29 at age 94. Jean was born in Brantford, Ontario to the late Albert and Francis Wedlake.
She is survived by her daughter Susan Bray (Doug) of Belleville, Ont.; sons John Ellacott (Carla) of Salt Spring Island, B.C. and Michael Ellacott (Dorte) of Kamloops, B.C. She will be greatly missed by all, including her eleven grandchildren and nineteen great grandchildren.
She was predeceased by her husband, Patrick, of fifty years, her brothers Jim and Jack Wedlake and sister Margaret Wakefield, her daughters Penny Townsley and Bonnie Hunter; son-in-law Glenn Townsley, daughter-in-law Pamela Ellacott (wife of John) and granddaughters Alison Scimica and Robyne Townsley and great granddaughter, Savanna Hunter.
Jean graduated in 1945 from Brantford General Hospital as a Registered Nurse. Her nursing career served her well throughout her life. Pat and Jean traveled widely in their retirement. In 2008 they moved to Kelowna to be closer to family; later moving to Kamloops. Everywhere Jean went she made friends and she cherished these friendships. Her greatest pride was displaying the many cards she got on special occasions. Family meant everything to her. Jean was also a devote Christian and quickly became part of the Church community wherever she lived. Thanks to all those who welcomed her.
Special thanks to the doctors and staff of Royal Inland Hospital and Trinity Lodge Hospice, Kamloops, for their compassionate care.
A Celebration of Life and internment will take place in Newmarket, Ontario at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society for breast cancer research will be greatly appreciated.
