In loving memory ~
Alexina "Ina" Clarke passed away August 18, 2022, at the age of 98.
Ina was described by many as funny, intelligent, quick witted, a force of nature, thoughtful and a good friend.
She had a life-long love of dancing which along with her pride in being a native of Aberdeen, Scotland gave her much joy over the years. It was unfortunate that she was not able to be here when the Queen passed. It would have made her sad but she would have enjoyed sharing old memories of the monarchy with family and friends.
She will be missed by her sons Philip (Dawn) and Lee (Feng) as well as countless friends and surrogate families. Also mourning her loss is her grandchildren Amanda, Hillery, Graeme, Joel, Geoffrey, Caitlin, Lucas and their families. Ina was predeceased by Jimmy, her husband of 73 years, who she often referred to fondly as her best friend. They were rarely apart from one another.
Thank you to the staff of the Fourth Floor, NRGH; Lakeside Gardens, Nanaimo; The Seniors Village, Summerland for their care and support in her final years.
