Irene Marjory Meiller
MEILLER, Irene….
It is with great sadness that the Meiller family announces the passing of their matriarch Irene Marjory (Franzen) Meiller. Irene passed away peacefully at home on the morning of Wednesday, November 28, 2018 with her loving daughter and best friend, Annette, by her side.
Irene is in the loving arms of our heavenly Father and received her final blessing on Tuesday night. She is predeceased by her husband of 44 years, Edward Charles Meiller. Irene is survived by all 9 of her children, 6 sons and 3 daughters. Edward Jr., Linnea (Dennis) Glas, Rene (Tami), Andre (Michelle), Jean (Joanna), twins Annette and Tore (Deb), Lissette, and Raoul (Shelly). As if raising 9 children wasn’t enough Irene welcomed into her arms 23 grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren.On November 18 Irene celebrated her 91st birthday and was at home and surrounded with family throughout her day. She even skyped with loved ones unable to visit.
Irene was born in Grosse Pointe, Michigan to Irene (nee Nelson) and Tore Franzen where she was the only sister to brothers Richard, Tore and Arthur. It was at the Grosse Pointe Yacht club where she found her love of swimming and won several trophies in her youth. Irene kept in touch with her niece Tura Franzen over the years and was updated with family stories from afar thru video chats with Tura. Irene travelled to Sweden with her father in the 1940’s to visit relatives. With Irene’s Swedish heritage her sons’ children knew her as Far-Mor and her daughters’ children knew her as Mor-Mor.
A heartfelt thanks to the many healthcare staff who became more like friends to Irene, especially Kim.
Family was everything to Irene and any friend of her children soon became part of the family. She was a beautiful and strong woman, a true matriarch. The beauty of her youth remained in her heart as she aged. Irene loved all and was loved by all. She will be missed.
In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society in Irene’s name. A celebration of Irene’s life will be held on Satuday, December 1, 2018 from 2:00pm to 4:00pm at Community of Christ Church, 1550 Brydges Street, London, ON, N5W 4M9.

POPE, Terry …When my wife passed away I was very distraught when the hospital told me I needed to inform them where I would like her body sent to. I had no idea how to proceed. I really lucked out when I found these very kind Souls on the internet. Bailey and the rest of the staff we’re very informed and professional and helped me through all the steps that I needed to take. They also put all the information in a nice folder that came in handy for all the other paperwork that I needed for the lawyer, Etc. I would highly recommend them.
At a time when decisions are difficult turn to the kind staff at Cremation London. I lost someone very close to me. Cremation London was knowledgeable, helpful and extremely accommodating.
Amazing! I can not be any more happy with the professional, caring and compassionate service we received . Kelly was PERFECT!!! I feel we have become FRIENDS after dealing with the most tragic experience of losing a family member so suddenly. That shows her true caring heart. She went beyond expectations!
