Obituary of Erin Katherine Driscoll-Davies
Our caring, intelligent, beautiful Erin Driscoll-Davies died suddenly and unexpectedly on Thursday, November 28, at the age of 19.
Erin is loved endlessly by her mom and dad, Marsha Driscoll and Greg Davies; her big sister, Sydney Driscoll-Davies (Harry); her grandparents, “Grandma Who Cooks” Mariam Davies, “Grandma Who Reads” Sharon Driscoll, “Poppa” Richard Driscoll, “Australian Grandma” Glenda Byrnes, and Grandpa Jerry Davies, who predeceased her.
She is survived by aunts and uncles Cary (Robyn), Brad (Jan), Mike (Anita), Steve (Violaine), Zac (Ellen), and Josh; her cousins Ashley (Jonathan & Emelyn, their daughter), Rachel (Eric), Alex, Sean, Rory, Chelsea, Brianne (Mia, her daughter), Arman, Ronan, Shawheen, Olivia, and Camino; great aunts and uncles; second cousins and more.
Erin made lasting impressions and formed amazing friendships from within her neighbourhood, Oxbow Public School, Medway High School, Brock University, Shadowlane Stables, Sari Therapeutic Riding, Centauri Arts Camp, and everywhere else she went.
Erin was excelling in her second year of her Concurrent Education Program at Brock University when she was taken from us. Erin’s passion for teaching, and life-long commitment to working with children, was an inspiration to everyone who knew her. She had a vivid imagination, a caring heart, a dramatic personality, an empathetic nature, and an unending joy of discovery. She was a gift.
A drop-in Celebration of Erin’s Life will take place from 4 to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, December 3, at MUSEUM LONDON, 421 Ridout Street North, in downtown London, Ontario. Please join us as we share in remembrance of Erin among those who loved her.
