KEELER:
Elsie Elizabeth Keeler (formerly Lampkin/ nee Passmore), of London and formerly of Hamilton, surrounded by her loved ones, peacefully went to be with her Lord on Sunday, February 15, 2004 at Parkwood Hospital, London in her 74th year. Dearly loved wife and soul mate of Ross Keeler and the late Jack Lampkin. She will be sadly missed by her children Ruth Lampkin-Smith, Jeannie Kennedy, Terri and her husband Rob Sparling and Brian Keeler and his wife Diane. Cherished grandma of Adam and Farrah, Emily and Ellen and Matthew and Ryan. Elsie was the loved daughter-in-law of Lisa Keeler and sister-in-law of Marion and Bob Thomas and Dave and Lois Keeler. Dearly loved aunt to Jim and Carol Lampkin and Gwen and Don Gray. Predeceased by her brother Edmund Passmore. Elsie’s life was filled with giving love and laughter to others in any way she could, teaching acceptance and unconditional love. She was a member of the Bethlehem Chapter of O.E.S. and a 10 year volunteer at the L. H. S. C. Oncology Department. Her delightful sense of humor and practical jokes will be missed by all. Elsie was a very special person that had many, many friends – all who claimed her as their best friend” – what an honour it has been to have had her in our lives. Friends will be received by the family from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday at the A. Millard George Funeral Home”

    Dear Uncle Ross,

    I was deeply saddened when Marion told me that Elsie had died. I am thinking of you and keeping you in my prayers. Elsie always had the ability to make me laugh and I will always cherish that memory of her, she will be missed. If I could be there, I know we could both use a big hug; which only you do the best. Just know that I love you and will see you soon.

    Thinking of you,

    Karen Glover

    I lost a friend in London town
    She gave to the world a happy smile
    A tiny joke to cheer your day
    Love is with her all the way
    So when a light rain is coming down
    She is sprinkling fresh love
    To a world who may have problems
    So hard to resolve
    So remember dear friends
    God in his glory gives a friend
    So acknowledge our sins
    Forgiveness is there
    To the person who asked abundance flows
    Another star in Gods realm above
    God chooses wisely each day of each year
    She fought a good fight
    She finished the race
    And kept the faith

    Hi Ross,
    I just received the sad news from John Ticknor. Please accept my heartfelt condolences on the passing of your beloved wife, Elsie. I know it has been a long and difficult battle for both of you and I am sure she is at peace now that the struggle is finally over. I still look back at those early days of Kingsmill Chapter and my many stays at your home. Elsie was always a garacious host and went out of her way to make me feel welcome in your home. May your many fond memories of your life together give you peace in the difficult days and months ahead. Bob Baker

    Dear Uncle Ross and family,
    I’d like to express my condolences to all of you.
    Aunt Elsie was a very kind wonderful woman. Years ago, when I was about ten, I was really into professional wrestling. When Elsie heard this she selflessly gave me a very collectable Georgeous George autograph that she had obtained years earlier at one of his matches. I remember telling Elsie that it was a real collector’s item as Georgeous George was no longer around and had quite the fan base. She didn’t care about holding onto it or trying to sell it. She just wanted to make this ten year old kid’s day which she obviously did. Once again I am truly sorry for your loss!
