Obituary: Gloria Nesta Crozier – August 30, 2024

Gloria Nesta Crozier passed away peacefully on Friday, August 30, 2024 in her 97th year at Brucelea Haven in Walkerton.  Loving wife of the late Orval Crozier. Predeceased by her first husband Keith Nicholls. Devoted mother of son Eddie Nicholls (Nora) and daughter Susan Symons (Dean). Cherished grandmother to Tania (Tim), Jody (Lee), Matthew (Rachel), Brooke (Mitch), Brandi (Carlos), Erin (Shawn), Liam (Jamila), Bridget (Colin) and great grandmother to 17 great grandchildren. Cherished aunt to Cheryl Schroeder (Don) and the late Shelly Sabourin (Poof).

Predeceased by her parents, Nesta and George Martin and Robert Vance, and her siblings Eddie, Tom and Jean Edwards (Bob). 

Gloria was a faithful member of St. John’s Anglican Church in Port Elgin for many years, contributing generously to the life of the church. She also enjoyed many years as an active member of the Port Elgin Curling Club. Gloria was often found playing cards with all her ‘Bridge Girls’.

She loved to tend to her home and gardens, but her favourite pastime was spent with her family and loved to prepare and share her table with family and friends. 

A special thank you for the exceptional care given to our Mother for the last two years from the second floor west wing staff at Brucelea Haven, Walkerton.
