Peacefully, surrounded by her family at University Hospital on Friday, October 16, 2015, Betty Lou McKellar, of London, in her 84th year. Dear friend of the late Ian McKellar.

Was sorry to read in the Free Press of BettyLou's passing. Would see her out and about in her chair and check in with her, and Walker Schofield tried many times to get her to come down to Metro Morning but she did come down to the Christmas Candlelight service last December. Sympathy from Metropolitan United Church Family.
