March 18, 1921 \u2013 November 30, 2021<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Evelyn Margaret Frauzel Tabrett, of Lachine, Qu\u00e9bec, peacefully in the early hours of 30 November 2021, during her centenarian year. Born on 18 March 1921, to Charles and Francis (Butler) Frauzel, in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, Evelyn was the eldest of 8 children. Growing up on a farm in Chelsea, NS, Evelyn then enlisted in the Canadian Women\u2019s Army Corps during World War II, serving as a Private in Maidenhead and Slough, UK, from 1942 to 1945.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It was as she was to be deployed in Halifax, NS, that she met the love of her life, the late Sgt. John Harvey Tabrett, lifetime member of the Black Watch (RHR of Canada) and the Scarforth Hylanders of Canada, of Montr\u00e9al, QC. The two would keep in touch across their time serving in the Canadian War Effort and would marry on November 12, 1945, at St. Peter\u2019s Church in Burnham, Buckinghamshire, UK. John and Evelyn returned to his native Montr\u00e9al and settled in Lachine, where they would build their lives together for the next 54 years, and raising their only child, their daughter, Judith Ann. Evelyn lived a quietly fulfilling life, enamored with her husband John, their cats and their expansive stamp collection. Evelyn created splendid knitting, crochet and quilting work and the best coconut cream pie in the world, all the while never missing Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth\u2019s Christmas address or news on the Royal House of Denmark.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Evelyn will be lovingly remembered and mourned by her daughter Judith (Brian), of Peterborough, ON; grandchildren, Sabrina, of Toronto,ON, and Adrian, of Peterborough, ON; and younger sisters, June Thurber, of Pugwash, NS, and Elizabeth (Betty) Warrell, of Cole Harbour, NS.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Evelyn is predeceased by her husband; parents; brothers, Glendon (Lorraine) of LaBelle, NS; Paul, of Toronto, ON; John (Margaret) of Halifax, NS; and Roderick (Belle) of Chelsea, NS; sister, Norma, of Chelsea, NS; and aunt, Edna-Mary Morrell, of St. John, NB, with whom Evelyn held an especially dear, life-long friendship.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The family holds deep gratitude to Evelyn\u2019s neighbours, Stan and Karen Balchunas, of Lachine, for their selfless dedication and uncompromising friendship with Evelyn, as well as the care team at Ste-Anne Veteran\u2019s Hospital, in Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue, for their tireless and compassionate care of Evelyn during her final years. \u00a0A special thank-you to J.J. Cardinal Funeral Home in Lachine, for their guidance and gentle consideration during this difficult time.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A private service is to be held on Tuesday 6 September at the Cimeti\u00e8re-Jardins Urgel-Bougie, in Laval, where Evelyn will be once more reunited with her loving husband John. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Montr\u00e9al SPCA<\/a> are suggested, reflecting her deep love and lifelong dedication to animals.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n R\u00c9SIDENCE FUN\u00c9RAIRE J.J.
