Ella was predeceased by husband Bill, parents Margaret & Thomas Barclay, siblings Lloyd, Howard, Ralph, Shirley, sister-in-law Marlene and son-in-law Tim.
Born and raised in Saskatoon, after marrying Bill, Ella felt fortunate to get to move around the country. They even spent some years living in Germany before putting down roots in Winnipeg where she enjoyed working at Sears and Bronson Denture Clinic. Ella always liked a good party, good music and good dinners with family. Keeping her independence till the end, Ella enjoyed her leisurely life at the Kiwanis Metropolitan Courts where she will be remembered for singing in the hallways!
