Elsie Helen Marshall passed away peacefully on June 25, 2025, in Mississauga, Ontario, at the age of 96. Born in Welland, Ontario on May 31, 1929, Elsie lived a long and meaningful life rooted in love, strength, and devotion to her family.

Elsie will be remembered as a passionate gardener, a strong advocate for issues important to her, and a compassionate person who would always offer her broad expertise to help others. Elsie’s feisty spirit, resilience, and love will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
The family would like to thank the exemplary staff at Trillium Mississauga Hospital on 4B and the palliative care unit.
