Colp;

COLP – Rosalind M. “Rosie”, 80, of Beach Meadows, Queens County, passed away peacefully in Queens General Hospital, Liverpool  on Friday, July 6th, 2012.

Born in Milton, she was a daughter of the late Ernest and Bertha (Seamone) McKinnon.

After Rosie’s children went to school, she chose a career at K&W Enterprise Book Bindery where she worked for over ten years. She enjoyed her time there and made many lifelong friendships. She was an active member of St. John’s Anglican Church and the A.C.W. in Eagle Head.

Rosie had many activities; she loved singing, sewing, knitting and spent many hours playing cards with family and friends. After Rosie’s retirement, she and Clyde enjoyed many trips with their camper, and later many fond years at their cabin in Ponhook.

She is survived by her husband of sixty-four years, Clyde Harris, her children: Louise (Gerald) Gaetz of Beach Meadows, David (Anna) of Bramalea, ON, Deborah Boyce of Toronto, Marilyn “Mitzie” (Douglas) Kent of Beach Meadows, Becky Colp (Joe Masella) of Kirkland, PQ. 10 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren. Her brother Ingram of Hamilton, ON.

  64. To Clyde and the entire Colp Family our sincerest condolences.
    One of the reasons the South Shore of Nova Scotia became our home was because of the sincere welcome and support we experienced from people like Rosie and Clyde.

Concentrate on this gift, to support each other at this time and carry out her dreams.
