Feburary 21, 1939 – September 7, 2020
It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of Mum / Nanny; Maureen Moulding (nee Wright), on September 7th, 2020 in her 81st year. Mum was born 21 February 1939 in Blackpool, United Kingdom.
She is survived by her only child, Julie Ann Thompson (nee Moulding), son-in-law David Thompson, grandchildren; Brittany, Kyle and Brandon Thompson; Tyson (who is waiting patiently to see you) - Nessa - Wallace & Crosby (the dogs) and Phoenix (the bearded dragon). She is also survived by her sister Ann Bibby (nee Wright), brother Douglas Wright and many nieces and nephews in and around Blackpool, United Kingdom. She is predeceased by her parents William & Gertrude Wright (nee Douglas), sister Mary Gallagher (nee Wright) and brother Frank.
Julie and I were fortunate enough to spend the last four days with Mum holding her hands, listening to her favourite singer “Elvis Presley” and watching one of her favourite TV shows “Coronation Street” when she passed peacefully from natural causes.
We would like to thank all the staff at the Cardiac-Renal ward at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Barrie for their tremendous support. In particular Marylin, Lydia and Julie for who went above and beyond to keep mum comfortable and a listening ear, shoulder to cry on for Julie and I.
