AnecdoteFor more details see http://turnbullclan.net/Brian_GedSite-o/g1/p1.htm#i23
AnecdoteGreta died suddenly on her 89 birthday following several strokes. She had been suffering for several years from Alzheimer's. She had visits the previous day by her daughter and son as well as her sister Irma and her husband Dave. Recognition of family members at that time was at best for brief periods of clarity. She was living in the St. Andrew's Presbyterian Home at 7486 St Jacques St West, Montreal. She was cremated on March 23, 1995 for burial in Montreal Memorial Park 3955 Cote de Liesse Rd with her husband Pat who predeceased her by 24 years.

BIOGRAPHY: Greta married Brian Patrick Nelson Turnbull in St. Matthews Church basement( the building had not been built yet) on the 24th of April 1937. One year later Brian Peter was born and five years after that Lynn Patricia was born. Many years later seven grandchildren and four great grandchildren were born. The most important thing in her life was her family from her parents down to her great grandchildren everyone had a special place in her heart. Little Greta was born at home, she was so small at birth that the doctor told her mother that she would not survive. This tiny soul of approximately two pounds began to suck her fist in her tiny cradle and her mother knew in her heart that if she could suckle on her breast that she would certainly survive. Survive she did and what a wonderful family life she had. Greta studied at Halifax Ladies College and was graduated from the Royal Victoria Hospital as a dietitian ( she was always a wonderful cook). Her dad was a barrister and solicitor and the family prospered. In 1929, just when he was at the peak of his political career as well as being the high sheriff of Newfoundland, he died of a heart attack and the family was forced to leave their home & country and move to Montreal in Canada where the job prospects for the “men” of the family were much better. It was in Montreal that she met Pat whom she adored until the day she died. Children were special to her and she loved her son, Brian and her daughter, Lynn who have been such a blessing in her life and who made her smile when they came to visit. Weddings in the family delighted and inspired her especially when her darling Lynn, a young girl of nineteen married Brian (a unique name in this family) on June 23, 1963. Brian was a little slower in choosing his bride but at 27 he married Gail (and Tony) on April 16, 1966. In St. Matthews Church. The next greatest delight in her life was her grandchildren, Wendy, Carolyn, Tony, Jimmy, Wayne, Peter and Monica. A great deal of love attention and care was given to them all especially in their early years. Her great grandchildren, Joshua, Andrea, William and James were also loved by her in their own special ways. To her brothers and sisters, she was the oldest and probably the tiniest of the children. She loved the days of family parties and celebrations and always talked of the fun and how special it all was to her. Even on her last day when we gathered at St. Andrews to celebrate her birthday she delighted in her special chocolates and the kiss Uncle Dave bestowed on her. She could still sparkle in her own special way. Since her youth in Montreal, her church held great significance in her life, thus the holding of her memorial service in St. Matthews Church was a fitting
end for this loving parent.

Miscellaneous: Greta was one of the first woman in Newfoundland to have her drivers licence. She made her debut at the Newfoundland Hotel.
