Her children Cindy (Gerry) Poole, John (Julie) Longstreet, Cathy (Bill) Ellis, grandchildren Ashley, Lindsey, Shaun, Adam, Zach and Chelsie, great-grandchildren Khloe and Kali, husband Frank, sister Louise (John) Dambrowitz and brother Bob Winters will forever miss her. She was predeceased by her father and mother Bill and Pearl Parcels, brother Larry, and first husband Melvin Longstreet. She was born in Matheson, Ontario, raised in Shillington, Ontario and then moved back to Matheson where she married and raised her family. She attended college and went on to work at the Matheson CIBC, the Black River Matheson Township Office and as manager of Longstreet Drilling. She enjoyed being a Brownie Leader and 4H Leader, passing on her knowledge to youngsters. She was a talented seamstress and an amazing cook. She enjoyed gardening especially when she retired to her paradise at Sesekinika Lake. She was a strong, independent and intelligent person who taught us all life lessons and supported us through life’s many adventures. We were proud of her accomplishments and loved her deeply.Her wishes were always that we not grieve her passing but celebrate a life well-lived. A celebration of her life will be held in the summer when we can gather again to share happy stories and memories. In lieu of flowers please consider donating to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or the Kirkland and District Hospital.Offer Condolence for the family of Wilma Lillian Longstreet-Potts (nee Parcels)

Frank & Family So sorry for your loss. Only met Wilma a few years ago when you moved on Park St However I met a beautiful charming lady, really enjoyed chatting with her a very sweet lady. So sorry
I have many fond memories of Wilma from my childhood and through to adulthood. She was my aunt. She had a great sense of humour and a sharp wit. After moving to Southern Ontario, I didnt see Wilma for many years but had the great pleasure of seeing her at a wedding at the Dambrowitz farm in Matheson 6 or 7 years ago. She was using a walker but that didnt slow her down one bit! We had a great conversation and Im so glad I had the chance to see her! Cindy, John, Cathy and families, Frank – you will have lots of wonderful memories that will keep her alive in your hearts. Stay strong, thats what she would want.

Wilma was our dear neighbour at Sesekinika. Our children grew up always enjoying their visits with Wilma. She always encouraged them in their pursuits and always had gems to add to their craft stashes. and gems of wisdom for them. She loved when our boys would drop Pike off for her to pickle/can. I loved the always stimulating conversations wed have on the deck. Her wit was delightful and her opinions strong. Our whole family will miss her. God speed Wilma.
Sincere and heartfelt condolences to Frank, Cindy, John and Cathy, and all the many other members of Wilma’s family. Her passing leaves a space in our hearts that are now filled with the loving memories of a life well and truly lived.
