It is with great sadness, we announce the passing of Barbara Jean Nelson, aged 70, on December 9, 2022 in London, Ontario due to complications of stroke.

Barbara Jean was born in Newcastle, New Brunswick on February 4, 1952.

​A dear mother, grandmother, sister and friend, Barb was pre-deceased by her loving husband, Ronald Nelson in 2017, her brother Alan, and her father Austin.

Barb is survived by her two daughters Laurie-Ann Nelson of Sault Ste. Marie, and Barbara Lynn (Chris) Walden of London; her grandchildren Elora, Lhiam, Katie, Bobby & Jenny, as well as great-grandchildren Rorie & Evie. Barbara will also be remembered by her mother, Barbara Ann Rogers of Moncton, her brother David (Lynn) Rogers, and sister Linda McGuire, as well as friends from Sault Ste. Marie and London.

Barbara Jean would love to be remembered by friends as a strong, spiritual, and creative woman.

We wish to express a heartfelt thank you to the doctors, nurses, and staff of the Clinical Neurosciences team at University Hospital who provided care for her during her last days.

A Celebration of Life service will be held in January 2023, details to follow. In lieu of flowers, donations in Barbara’s memory would be appreciated if made to: The Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, or another charitable organization.

We cherished the time we shared with Barb. She was a very spiritual lady, who knew her Bible well. She was exceptionally generous, caring, and kind. And, talk about creative! She loved making silk flower arrangements and was hoping to get into many artsy crafty pursuits. She was always looking to the future. She loved her family (and friends). What a blessing it will be to meet her again at the resurrection, when we will all be in better health and can learn more about our loving God. Our sympathies and condolences and prayers go to you, her family. She will be missed by all who are left behind.

Barb was a generous and loving spirit who put the needs of others ahead of her own. Her passing came much to soon as she had so much more to give. Always full of surprises, she is now free to leave a broken body behind and dance in heaven. My sympathies to the family.
