Sally Mae Thomson (Evans)

Sally Mae Thomson (Evans) passed away peacefully in her sleep on April 9, 2023 comfortably at home, at the age of 94. Sally is survived by her sons, Jim Thomson and John Thomson and her granddaughter, Stephanie Thomson (Jon) and great-granddaughter, Violet.

Sally was born and raised in Huntsville, Ontario to Dr. E.G. Evans and Hilda Evans (Peacock) where she lived on the Main Street above her father’s doctor’s office. She excelled in school and went on to attend Victoria College at the University of Toronto. For many years, she worked and raised her family in Toronto. After retirement, she returned to her family home in Huntsville where she lived with her beloved aunt, Vera Peacock, and enjoyed summers at the family cottage on Lake of Bays.

Sally will be remembered as the family matriarch who loved her family immensely. She was incredibly smart, quick witted and had a strong penchant for proper grammar. She loved to ballroom and line dance, appreciated a great meal, and never missed her afternoon cocktail.

Visitation will be held on Monday, April 17th, 2023 at Mitchell Funeral Home, 15 High Street, Huntsville from 2 pm – 4 pm. In Sally’s memory, donations to Huntsville Hospital Foundation or The Canadian Red Cross would be appreciated by the family in lieu of flowers.
