Obituary of Jennifer Latam (Mazur)

In Loving Memory

Mrs. Jennifer Latam of Delhi passed away at the Norfolk General Hospital, Simcoe, with a clear mind and soul, on Sunday, March 17, 2019 in her 91st year. She enjoyed wildlife and nature at it’s purest.  You could most often find her watching, feeding, or caring for a cat, a bird, or some other creature that found it’s way to her home, or with a strong coffee in one hand and a book in the other one, reading and re-reading about someone’s remarkable adventure. She will be remembered by her always so calming spirit, for walking bare foot in the snow, doing yoga stretches and headstands on the living room floor, and wearing satin pyjamas to bed.  She gained a reputation for gifting collectable coins and money in red envelopes, having fresh cheese bread on the counter, and taking time to only purchase stuffed animals for her grandkids that had soulful looking eyes.  She looked forward to spending a day cooking a stuffed Turkey dinner with all the fixings and valued good conversation and listening to the enjoyment of those around. Her gratefulness and appreciation for spending time with her family was tangible and she leaves us with lessons to be treasured. A void will be felt for Jenny’s daughter, Monica, to imagine watching mystery shows and documentaries or the Live Animal camera feeds without Mom. Monica will miss hearing all the comments about the cloud filled sky, the wonders of planet earth or about the wonderful colours of Autumn. But she knows that Jenny left this chapter with grace and peace and was greeted and welcomed with big warm hugs above for her next chapter. Former Jennifer Mazur was the Beloved wife of the Late Murray Latam (1991) and pre-deceased by her three brothers: Ed, Stan and Joe. Also, pre-deceased by her dear son, Graydon Latam (2015), Jenny leaves her loving daughter, Monica Weaver, daughter-in-law, Rosella Latam and her grandkids, Olivia, Maxwell and Vanessa, whom she cherished. As per Jennifer’s wishes, a Private Family Service will take place. Memorial Donations to the Heart & Stroke Foundation or to the Canadian Wildlife Federation can be made through the MURPHY FUNERAL HOME, Delhi (519) 582-1290 and will be greatly appreciated by the family.
