TODE, Ingrid Wera – (November 11, 1909 - September 12, 2007) : Passed peacefully on Wednesday, September 12th, at The Salvation Army Glenbrook Lodge in St. John’s, Ingrid (Grohsgal) Tode, two months before her 98th birthday. Predeceased in 1974 by her husband, Hans Juergen Tode. Also predeceased by her seven sisters and one brother, who were all older and spread in various parts of the world. Ingrid’s full and satisfying life is celebrated with great love, respect and admiration by her son, WolfDieter Tode (Nadine) in London, Ontario, and her daughter, Heddy Margarete (William J. Peddle) in St. John’s. Also remembered fondly by the grandchildren she loved dearly and influenced more than she knew: Cedella E. Beazley (Scott) in Minneapolis, MN; M. Ingrid Brodie in Coldbrook, N.S.; Adelle Tode (Michael O’Connell) in Calgary; Kristine Griba in Calgary; Stephen W. Peddle (Kimberley J. Blanchard) in St. John’s; and by her great-grandchildren: Jackson and Hannah Beazley; Olivia Colwell; Nicholas and Harrison Griba; Joshua and Luke Peddle; Brianna and Keira O’Connell. Also leaving to mourn two nephews: Klaus Staeben (Rosemary) in Milltown and Bernd Staeben (Rochelle) in Corner Brook, and their families; one grand-nephew, Bruce Grohsgal and family in Wilmington, DE. Ingrid and Hans emigrated from Germany in 1951 to Corner Brook, Newfoundland, where they built a new home and enjoyed a very active and happy life with a treasured circle of new friends, especially with the Corner Brook Playmakers. Following Hans’ passing in 1974, Ingrid moved to St. John’s to be closer to her children, and developed yet another active and productive life and circle of friends. In 1977 she became a founding member of the St. John’s Guild of Embroiderers, who made her an Honorary Life Member as a result of her many contributions. It will not surprise any of her friends that, as pragmatic as ever and with a good sense of humour, Ingrid made all her own arrangements while she was still hale and hearty, and before dementia gradually robbed her of her wonderful personality in the late 1990’s. Her last thirteen years were spent at Glenbrook Lodge in great comfort and peace, and the extraordinary attention and care she received from everyone at Glenbrook will always be remembered by her family with warm gratitude. According to her wishes, cremation has taken place. Visitation at Carnell’s Funeral Home, 329 Freshwater Road, St. John’s, on September 20, Thursday, 7 to 9 p.m. Memorial service at Carnell’s on September 21, Friday, at 11:00 a.m., followed by a reception. Inurnment in Corner Brook will be announced in the Western Star later this year. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Ingrid’s name to The Salvation Army Glenbrook Lodge, 105 Torbay Road, St. John’s, NL A1A 2G9.
