We have memories of a life that’s been loved. Our dear mom, Inez Barker (Seguin) passed away
peacefully on Thursday, November 3, 2022, age 96. She was predeceased by her beloved husband
Bernard Barker. She was the loving mother of Ron (Patricia), Connie (Richard Santiago), Colleen (Rick
Newburgh), Carol (Ralph Carmichael), and Karen (Hughie Coleman). Proud grandmother to Mark
(Chantal), Sarah, Amie (Ryan Neilson), Robb Munroe (Shanley), Jenna (Dan Shepherd), Caleb, Kiel and
Mikaela. Predeceased by her sweet Melissa Newburgh. She was called “the Queen” by her great-grandchildren; Owen, Evelyn, Benson, Ava, Mayson, Riley, Fiona, Olivia, and Avery.
She was predeceased by her parents, Ernest and Mary Margaret (Marie) Seguin. Inez was the eldest of
ten children; Frances (late George MacDougall), Carmel (late Tom Mills), Alda (late Charles Mullins),
Keith (Hilda), Helena (late Vince Wheeler), and Doug (late Nancy). Predeceased by brothers Vincent
(Nola), Don and Ken.
Mom loved nothing more than being with family and was always ready for a gathering with good food!
In her life she was blessed to be surrounded by many great neighbours and friends. She abided by her
motto: “if you can’t say something nice, say nothing at all.” Gramma has left her thumbprint on our
hearts.
