On Monday May 17th Monica (Jane) Eagleson passed away peacefully in her 81st year with her husband, John Ross Eagleson, of 63 years at her side. Jane will be dearly missed by everyone who knew her, with her never-ending love for the sun and the beach, or her commitment to accept nothing but perfection when it came to her lawn, garden or house. Everything had to be just right. Jane is survived by her husband John Ross Eagleson and her Son Greg (Karen). Predeceased by her Daughter Dale and Son in law Rod Curtis. Cherished grandmother to Danielle, Tera (Jason), Ryan (Carmen), Erinn (Mike), Ty (Chanel). Cherished great grandmother to Westan, Keegan, Lincoln, Kim, Reid and Brooke, Brandt, Fendt, Mikayla and Allyson. She will be dearly missed by the late Barb Spiers (Jim) and the late Marion Burns (Jim). We know that her footprints forever will be seen on Wicklow Beach. We love you! Those wishing to make a memorial donation in memory of Jane may do to the Northumberland Hills Hospital Foundation, Regency Long Term Care Home, or to a charity of your choice.

Hi. I knew Jane when my mom was in Regency Manor. I would ask Jane to join my mom and I if I brought snacks. She was so delighted to have something to do and would talk our ears off. She liked to hold my hand either just sitting or for a short walk down the hall. I've thought of her often with a smile on my face. My deepest sympathies to Jane's family.
