Evelyn Chittick

Evelyn "Dolly" Chittick, of R#3 Hanover, passed away on the family farm on Friday, March 16, 2018. She was 92.

Evelyn was born on November 9, 1925 in Bentinck Township. Evelyn was employed as a Nurses Aid both in Hanover and Durham until retiring in 1978. She enjoyed farming along side her husband in Bentinck. She was a faithful and dedicated wife and loved her husband Lloyd with all her heart. She was a member of the Bentinck Federated Farm Women of Allan Park and the Hanover Fair Board. Farming was in her blood and she happily went about chores with a smile on her face. She was a kind woman, often using her talents like baking, for helping others out. Everyone loved her homemade goodies and you didn't often leave from a visit with Evelyn without something to take home. A valued and faithful member of the Crawford United Church as well as being involved with the United Women for many years, she will be remembered as always lending a hand or helping out as much as possible. She remained on the family farm until her last breath.

Survived by sons David (Gloria) Chittick of Allan Park, Keith Chittick of Alliston and daughters Delores Gateman (Bob Boddy) of Chesley and Cleta (Gordon) Ernest of R#1 Hanover. Loved grannie of Kevin (Suzanne), Heather (Brett), Brian (Tanya), Jason Gateman, Lisa Graham (Robert), Doug (Jodie), Michael Ernest (Shannon) and Leanne Jones (Chris). She spent many memories and kisses shared by her great grandchildren; Shay, Kieran, Adam, Megan, Abigail, Amy, Bryce, Curtis, Alisha, Megan, Ryan, Jacob, Kaylee, Aiden, Alyssa, Jordan and Chase. Predeceased by her beloved husband Lloyd, sons Wayne and Harold, son in law Alan Gateman, daughter in law Velma Chittick, grandson Justin Gateman and great grandson Braeden.
