In Loving Memory of
Suzanne Barney (née Savarie)

Sue will also be sadly missed by her sister in laws, Barbara Barney, Carol Parfitt (Harry), Sandra Cameron, Norma Tomei (Guilio), brother-in-law Mark Barney, and father-in-law John Barney. Aunt Sue will be mourned by her many nieces and nephews from both families.
Predeceased by her father Nelson Savarie (1999), her mother Marie-Reine Savarie (nee Frappier), (2019), her sister Lucille Villeneff (2017), her sister Aline Filion (2021), and by her mother-in-law Lora Barney (2012).
Sue was a dedicated wife, mother and grandmother. Sue battled cancer for 13 years, never giving up, always being positive and willing to keep moving forward. Her positive outlook on life and always looking for the abilities in everyone she came across, gave her a unique approach on how she felt people should be treated. Sue was a wonderful cook, and having family get togethers were Sue’s specialty. Sue loved the outdoors especially camping and spending time at the lake with friends and family. Her love for family was second to none, especially when her 3 grandchildren were born. They are her whole world.
The family would like to express their heartfelt thanks, towards the staff at the Timmins and District Hospital, Emergency room, ICU, Medical unit C, and especially the nurses in the Palliative care ward. Your care, compassion and kindness will forever be remembered.
Donations to the Canadian Cancer Society, or the Timmins Special Olympics would be appreciated.
Visitation will be at the Stinson Funeral home, on December 28, 2022, from 2 pm to 4pm & 7 pm to 9 pm.
Funeral services will be held at St. Joachim’s, church on South Porcupine, Ontario Thursday December 29, 2022, at 11 am.
