Obituary for Frances Robina Catherine Ballingall

Frances Robina Catherine  Ballingall
Frances Robina Catherine Ballingall ( MacIver)

Frances has passed into the arms of her loving God to be reunited with her eternal love, Jimmie.
Born January 22,1928 to Alexander John and Agnes MacIver in Winnipeg Manitoba
Passed away January 24,2016 in North Vancouver BC. Frances was predeceased by her husband Jimmie, sisters Margaret and Diane, her brothers Jack and Bruce, her daughter in law Diane and her granddaughter Melissa Jane.
Frances is survived by her six sons: Brian (Sally), Bruce (Donna), Brent (Cathy), Jim (Shauna)
Tom (Brenda), Michael (Diana); her 13 Grandchildren, 11 Great Grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.
A Wife, a Mother, a Grandmother, a Great Grandmother, an Aunt, and a Friend to so many. Every life touched by her was enriched by the experience.
Mom was a great hostess and loved playing piano at the many parties held in our basement rec rooms.
Our Mom spent her entire Life being a “hands on” Mother to her six boys. Our Mom was a Mother who was always there for us, guiding her sons with something between an iron fist and kid gloves. One of Mom's favourite tactics was to say something like “let your conscience be your guide” or “to thyne own self be true” as a son was leaving the house for the evening, all our lives we knew we could always go home and Mom would be there.

Our Family moved a lot. Mom and Dad lived in Winnipeg, Fort Frances, Winnipeg, West Vancouver, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Calgary, and finally Tsawassen. Mom was the lead on all of our moves and did an amazing job guiding her sons through the adjustments and the challenges of relocations.
Everywhere Mom left many friends at church groups and volunteer organizations she had joined.
The family would like to extend their sincere appreciation to the amazing staff of Lynn Valley Care Centre, Dr. Paul Sugar and the staff at Amica Park Royal who all made Mom’s transition more comfortable.
A celebration of Mom’s Life will be held Saturday April 23rd at Tsawwassen Springs Golf Course Event Center 5133 Springs Blvd. Tsawwassen, BC from 1:00 to 4:00 PM
