The family of Melba Madeleine Holden announces her peaceful passing on May 1, 2024, in her 97th year. Loving mother of the late LeeAnn Derbyshire of Dundas, and Greg Derbyshire (Elizabeth) of Brantford. I adore Grams for Adam Fenn (Sarah), Rachael Derbyshire (Bruce Cook), Rob Derbyshire (Kayley Pettit) and Emily Derbyshire, and Great Grams for Owen and Jacob Fenn. Loved and admired by nieces and nephews Debs (deceased) (John), Kathy (Graham), Ted (deceased), Wayne (Mary Margaret), Lisa (Mike) and Sean (Jenn), and their families. Predeceased by parents Lorenzo and Beatrice (nee Stephenson) Holden, and siblings Lyle (Marion), Ted (Dot), Bob (Rachael) and Linda (John).
A native of Windsor Ontario, Melba attended Windsor Business College after high school and eventually became employed by the City of Windsor. In 1969, she moved her children to Bracebridge Muskoka, where she worked as an office manager at the Muskoka Assessment Office. After her retirement, she moved to Dundas to be closer to her children and grandchildren. A lifelong learner, she was an avid reader of novels, philosophy, and current events. She attended university and art courses all her life. She enjoyed spending time outdoors, cross-country skiing in winter and walking in nature all year round – especially at the Royal Botanical Gardens. But by far her favorite activity was spending time with her family.
She was often visited by her son, grandchildren, niece Lisa and family friend Lori in her final days and felt supported and deeply loved. She spent her final days under the compassionate care of the staff at Stedman Community Hospice in Brantford. In lieu of flowers, donations in her memory may be made to Stedman Community Hospice, Brantford, or the Royal Botanical Gardens, Burlington.
There will be a Celebration of Life on Sunday, June 23 at 2 p.m. location to be confirmed; contact Circle of Life, Dundas, 905-628-8558 in June.
