The family of Elsie Sarah Mo att ( née Coles) sadly announce her passing on Saturday, January 9, 2021, at 91 years of age in Springwate­r, Ontario, at home with her devoted husband and best friend of 71 years, Ron.

Cherished mother of Rhonda Mo att and Rick Fisher of Ajax, Bryan and Ollie Mo att of Barrie, Brenda Mo att of Orillia and Doug Mo att and Cathy Logue of Toronto. Adored grandmothe­r of Ryan Robillard ( Elyssa), Ti any Killam ( Dave), Steve Mo att, Gregory Mo att ( Ashley), Mark Mo att ( Sarah), John, Lizzie and Tom Mo att. Elsie loved babies and was blessed with eight beautiful greatgrand­children, Ethan and Kayla, Ben and Leah, Reese and Spencer, Madison and Tessa. Elsie survived her sister and brothers and was a favourite aunt to many nieces and nephews.

A loving and devoted wife, the best mother and grandmothe­r anyone could ever ask for, Elsie was always there for her family in good times and in bad, and an excellent teacher by example. Elsie was a wonderful hostess and cook and loved nothing more than to be surrounded by her family and friends. She will be remembered for orchestrat­ing the best Christmase­s ever, cultivatin­g a very close- knit family with her weekly Sunday dinners, and being the best friend and con dante anyone could ask for. Elsie was well loved by all. A very generous volunteer over the years, collecting donations for numerous charities, donating her time in the kitchen at Burton Avenue United Church, delivering for Meals on Wheels and as a volunteer at Royal Victoria Hospital. In her younger days, an avid bowler and Toastmistr­ess, and later a very active participan­t in bridge at the Seniors Centre and poker with the girls. There will be a small family service and interment and hopefully a Celebratio­n of Life when the future allows. In lieu of owers, donations to your favourite charity would be appreciate­d.
