BAINES, Margaret Rose Ross (née Kleininger). Passed away peacefully with loved ones by her side at Jackman Manor in Aldergrove on June 26th 2014. She was born Nov 25th 1922 in Rockglen, Saskatchewan. She was predeceased by her husband Cpl Frank Ross, her parents Nick and Elizabeth Kleininger, her son Fraser Ross and her son-in-law David Rush. Mom is survived by daughters Heather Atwell, Lorna Jane Rush (Jo Wrench), Francene Groves (Ted), and Denise Nixon Graves (Mike). She was a loving Grandma to Michael Ross, Laura Brain (Steve), Angela Prichard (Anna Judge), Hayley Groves (Kurt Stoppler), Brittany Groves (Pavel Bakhilau), and Jesse Groves (Breanna Oleskiw) and Nana to Sierra, Kaiden, Elijah, Jaryn, Colby, Kai, Korbyn and Kenzey. She is also survived by her siblings Charles, Gladys, Betty, RoseMarie, Roy, and June. As a young widow she moved from Saskatchewan to Abbotsford where she raised her 5 children with the help of her Mom and Dad. When she wasn't busy working at BC Tel or raising children, she enjoyed bridge, cross stitch, reading, word find books, and of course her baseball games. Shy by nature, her door was always open for family and friends and her loving and generous ways will live on in all of us. The family would like to thank all the staff at Jackman Manor for the wonderful care and loving attention given to Mom for the past 4 years.
Funeral Service to be held Thursday July 3rd at 2 PM at St Joachim and Ann's Catholic Church, 2827 273rd Street, Aldergrove, B.C.
Softly the leaves of memories fall
Gently we gather and treasure them all
Unseen, unheard, you are always near
So loved, so missed, so very dear
