ELSIE DICK

Elsie Dick passed away Dec. 18. She was born Feb. 9, 1940 to Gerhard and Barbara Dick in New Hamburg, Ont. In 1947 the family moved to Virgil, Ont. Health problems soon developed. Her mother cared for her for 18 years until she moved to Bethesda Home. Music delighted her and she requested her records to be played many times. She communicated with her eyes, sounds and responses, revealing a greater measure of understanding than expected. Her 60th birthday party was a special occasion of delight. Predeceased by her parents and sister Bertha Wichert, she is mourned by sister Olga and brother Wilbert. The funeral was Dec. 20 Tallman Funeral Chapel, Vineland, Ont., with George Wichert ministering.
