Obituary for Mette Margaret Garbutt

Mette Margaret  Garbutt
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Mette Garbutt, beloved wife of the late Gordon Garbutt. She will be dearly missed by her children Clifford (Athena), Dana and Shelley; grandchildren Natalie, Danielle and Jeffrey; brother David Petersen (Gerda); sister-in-law Loraine Atkey; nieces and nephew; and dear friends.

Mette was a loving mother and grandmother and will be forever missed. She enjoyed spending quality time with her family and friends. She thoroughly enjoyed her lush garden and home. She was also an amazing cook, loved golf, travel, theatre and the symphony.

We would like to thank the staff and care-givers at Sunrise of Lynn Valley for their excellent care of our Mother. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimer Society of B.C. in Mette's name.

A private family gathering will take place.
