KELLY FUNERAL HOMES 613-837-2370 SANDERS, Sylvia Christine (nee Whittlesey) -120071 -127576 Sylvia died peacefully on October 5, 2007, following a stroke. Sylvia celebrated 61 years of marriage with her lovingnd devoted husband, C. Leroy Sanders, who was her primary caregiver at home since her first stroke five years ago. She is greatly missed by Roy and their children Heather Wiffen (Graham), Richard Sanders (Susan Fisher) and Wendy Pyper (Ken) and grandchildren Ben Emily Wiffen, Arthur Erica Sanders, and Nicholas Pyper.

She will be fondly remembered by friends and family. Sylvia's first job in the family music shop in Birmingham sparked her lifelong love of music. During WWII, as a youth in the women's branch of the British Army, she was awakened to the horrors of war. Her remarkably diverse early careers included munitions machinist, entertainer, clerk in the British Army's records office and hairdresser. As a post-war bride, Sylvia joined Roy in Canada and supported him through university.

She worked as a homemaker, but soon became a house and cottage designer and builder, real estate agent, land developer and financier. Sylvia's artistic flair was expressed in painting and pottery. Her intense curiosity about other cultures, history, nature and genealogy, and her desire to promote peace and understanding, fed her enthusiasm for exploring the world. For almost 50 years, she worked tirelessly helping organize countless events and campaigns to oppose war and injustice. Since the early days of building solidarity with the American civil rights movement, opposing the Vietnam War and nuclear weapons tests, she was very active in numerous peace organizations, including Voice of Women, Operation Dismantle and was a driving force in the Coalition to Oppose the Arms Trade.

She charmed and inspired volunteers, led by example, challenging activists and politicians alike. A longtime socialist and feminist, she supported the NDP, especially the "Waffle" movement, and continually strove to motivate others. Until the very end, she was still striving to contribute, still offering to help. Moments before her recent stroke, she was planning with Roy to distribute leaflets and signs. A Memorial Service will be held at First Unitarian Congregation, 30 Cleary Ottawa at 1 pm, October 23, 2007.

In place of flowers, consider a donation to an appropriate organisation and, as Sylvia would say: "Be more active. Help protect the environment. Protest. Stand up against war! can't do it anymore, so carry on the struggle."

I thank you for the love you each have shown, But now it's time I travel on alone. So grieve a while for me, for grieve you must, Then let your grief be comforted by trust. It's only for a while that we must part. So bless the memories within your heart.

I won't be far away, for life goes on, So if you need me, call and I will come, Though you can't see me or touch me, I'll be near, And if you listen with your heart, you'll hear, All of my love around you soft and clear.
