(nee Teder)
Peacefully, on Wednesday March 11, 2020, at Mountainview Residence, Georgetown, at the age of 85 after five and a half year battle with Alzheimer’s Disease. Beloved wife of the late Sulev. Loving mother of John (Rebecca) and Allan (Alison). Cherished grandma of Taylor and Kathryn. Dear sister of Harry Teder (Margaret) and loving aunt of Rein and Karin. Orvi was born in the city of Parnu, Estonia. Fleeing her homeland during WWII, she settled in Chicago, where she met the love of her life Sulev from Toronto. Moving with him back to Toronto in 1962 they built a new life together and brought two sons into the world. Orvi had a passion for reading, feeding her backyard birds, all while enjoying her Tim’s double-double. She loved a good conversation with anyone walking by her house or in person, but most of all will be remembered for her thoughtfulness and putting others needs before hers. A special thank you to the staff at Mountainview Residence for their loving care and support. Friends may call at the Turner & Porter Peel Chapel, 2180 Hurontario St., Mississauga (Hwy. 10, N. of QEW), on Thursday from 6-9 p.m. Funeral Service in the Chapel on Friday, March 20, 2020 at 11 a.m. Interment Mount Pleasant Cemetery. For those who wish, donations may be made to the Alzheimer Society.

We never met but knowing Allan I know you were a wonderful lady.

I heard this just this morning...The Egyptians believed that you die twice. Once when you take your final breath, and then again the last time someone says your name. They believe your spirit lives on as long as people kept remembering you. So as long as we keep remembering, you're never really gone.

My sincere condolences to you all.

So sorry for your loss, Moks family.

It has been a long time, but I remember our visits to Toronto and Aunt Orvi. We had lovely family time in the back-yard, and at least a few trips to the beach. Aunt Orvi was always smiling. She sure took her time in being reunited with Uncle Sulev! So glad she passed peacefully.
