December 16th, 1944 - January 6th, 2025
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Sondra Susan Vale (nee Brayden) at home in Newmarket, ON, on Monday January 6, 2025, at 80 years of age. Loving wife of Michael E. Vale for 57 wonderful years. Proud and devoted mother of Jana Vale, Peter (Tracy) Vale and Brian (Nicole) Vale. Much loved grandmother of Brayden, Emma and Nolan. Dear daughter of late Edward and Gladys Brayden and Sister of late David Brayden. Fondly remembered by many in-laws, nieces and nephews.
Sondra was deeply involved in the quilting community, her creations will be cherished by her friends and family. She was a mentor and inspiration to many, always eager to share her knowledge. However, Sondra’s greatest love was her family, she was the cornerstone, always nurturing and supporting them. She could be counted on for a comforting hug and wise advice. She had a big personality that filled the room with light and laughter. She was unapologetically herself - a quality so admired. She will be missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
Special thanks to the caring staff at Southlake Regional Health Centre and Amica.
Visitation will be held on Tuesday January 14, 2025, from 10 a.m. – 12 noon. A funeral service will follow in the chapel at 12 noon, followed by a light reception.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Heart & Stroke Foundation, Canadian Cancer Society or Southlake Regional Health Centre Foundation.
