Alice Mildred Langille

Langille, Alice – It is with heartfelt sadness the family of Alice Mildred Langille announces her peaceful passing on January 19th at Woodingford Lodge. Alice was predeceased by her husband Walter, survived by her 6 children; Dave (Carol), Heather Werby (Dan), Marilyn Denby (Don), Carol Holman (Derek), Julie Hawken (Rob: predeceased 2020) Michael, 12 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren. Alice was born in 1935 on the Mountain Road, River John, Nova Scotia. She was raised with 3 brothers and 2 sisters. Growing up on a farm instilled a strong work ethic that Alice maintained throughout her life. She was a hard worker, both in and outside of the home as well as her volunteer efforts over the years in Nova Scotia and Ontario. Together, Alice and Walter raised their six children who were always their number one priority. Favourite times were spent surrounded by their family, and extended family. Her pride in her family was undeniable. Anyone who met Alice, even if for a moment, would agree she was the most selfless, gracious, individual, ready to lend a hand, an ear, or a well-cooked meal. From baking to her gifted quilting, she shared with all. We take pride in the beauty and detail of these gifts she left us, from recipes to hand-stitched quilts. Her legacy is her words of wisdom: “Have faith and be kind”. She maintained that generous beautiful spirit to the end of her days on this earth. Alice had a deep faith, and it is comforting to know that she left this world for a better place where she will be welcomed with open arms by her loved ones. Anxiously waiting will be our Dad to give her a ride on the crossbar of his bike.

The family would like to thank the excellent care provided to our Mom, from all the staff at Woodingford Lodge, particularly Peach Place where she spent her final 3 years.

Cremation has taken place, and she will travel back to the Mountain Road one last time to be interred with her husband of 69+ years later this year. Funeral service will be held at Knox Presbyterian Church, Woodstock, Ontario on Saturday, February 1st, 2025, at 11am.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Alzheimer’s Society or Knox Presbyterian Church.
