Frances Olejnik
We are devastated to announce the sudden passing of our dear mother May 1, 2019.
She died of a broken heart after losing her spouse, Walter, of 62 years just 10 weeks prior.
Frances was a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother who always made her family priority number one. Great meals and an inviting home were her pride and joy. She exuded warmth and kindness to everyone she met.
Mom emigrated from Scotland in her early 20’s. She met her husband here and together they raised their 5 children in Toronto. Our home was always a place where friends and family were welcome.
When she went back to work, she had a wonderful 25 year career at Malvern Collegiate, where she was dearly loved by the students and staff.
She leaves a big hole in the hearts of her children, Michael (Suzanne), John (Tina), James (Barb), Jeff (Kelley) and Michelle (Paul). And her 9 Grandchildren who she was very proud of.
Her hugs, homemade cookies and chocolates will be greatly missed by all!
The family will be holding a private ceremony.
Thank you to all for your kind words, cards, and condolences.

Dearest Fran, always kind, generous and strong. Kind and sweet to me from day we met. Very special lady with a warm heart, open arms and always a wee smile. A guiding light and a binding force for her family through all of life’s trials. She will be missed and remembered with happiness.
My condolences to the family for your loss.
