ZIMMER ELEANOR "POOKIE" LUBIN In the early hours of January 2, 2016, on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada, Eleanor departed this world with dignity and grace at the age of 86. She was the beloved wife of the late Ronald C. Zimmer; loving mother of David H. (formerly Sherry) Zimmer. Many cousins, nieces, nephews and friends also survive her, all of whom were loved by "Aunt Pookie." The love she and Ronald shared for cats was legendary. So a very special thanks to the countless furry "little people" along the way who surrounded her in living and dying and brought immeasurable solace, happiness and love to her. A sincere thank you to Gregory DeMatteo whom she considered as being her "second" son, as well as Ross, Brenda, Ron and Corinna for their loving care and attention in her final years, months and days. A special thank you to British Columbia Palliative Care for support second to none in Mum's final days. At Eleanor's request, a private graveside ceremony was held on January 15, 2016.
