Elizabeth (Betty) Forsyth

1929 - 2019

With deep sadness we announce Betty’s sudden passing on November 21,2019.

Betty was the daughter of Elsie (Macleod) and Angus Mackenzie.  She and her brother Douglas (d. 2018) grew up in Lennoxville, Quebec.  Betty graduated in 1951 from the Montreal General Hospital School of Nursing and cherished friendships with classmates from those days throughout her life. 

Betty was the loving wife of Bill Forsyth (d. 2001) whom she met in Montreal while in training.  She and Bill were married and called several cities across Canada home over the course of Bill’s career including Tsawwassen where they retired.

Betty will be greatly missed by her children, Sheila(Wayne d.2004), Ian, and Jane (Grant).  She always took great interest in their lives and those of her 5 granddaughters Brittany (Graham), Megan (Brian), Tamara (Sean), Madelyn (Ash),and Michaela (Matt). Betty will also be missed by sister in law Betty(Randy), cousins and numerous nieces and nephews.

Her great grandchildren Rylan, Liam, Katelyn, and Penny were a source of great delight for her.
Further to Betty’s wishes there will be no service, but a private family gathering at a later date.

If you so wish, donations in Betty’s memory to the George C Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary or Delta Hospital Foundation would be appreciated.
