elevated DjWne
elevated DjWne On Monday, August 10, Maura Boyle, loving mother of three, passed away at the age of 75 after a two and a half year battle with cancer. Maura was born on November 10, 1944 in Belfast, Ireland. She married Richard Boyle in 1967 and moved to Canada to build a family. Together, Maura and Richard raised three sons: Sean, Kevin and Martin. A mother figure to many, Maura was a caring, strong and determined person throughout her life. Maura had an adventurous spirit. She loved to laugh, dance, travel and more recently took to painting. In real estate, she made a successful career through her charisma, impeccable taste and integrity. Maura was preceded in death by her father Patrick, Mother Elizabeth and husband Richard. She is survived by her three sons; grandchildren Aislinn, Liam, Nathan and Katie; siblings Joe, Tommy, Hugh, Tony, Lillian, Brendan and Anne as well as her nieces and nephews. The funeral service will be held on Tuesday, August 18th at Assumption Catholic Cemetery (6933 Tomken Rd) at 10am. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, capacity will be limited. As a result we ask that only family and friends of Maura attend.

So sad to hear about Maura
Thinking of you Eleanor and Sean
I had the pleasure of meeting Maura through her family in London my dear friends the Corrs.
She also became a friend and i saw her many times over the years when she visited her family in London.
She was always so posotive and so well organised in her professional and private life.
Loved her family and friends.
Maura you will be greatly miss by many people.
Sleep tight another Angel in Heaven.
Breda John &family.
Maura, you and Richard were always so kind and welcoming to me growing up. You always treated me as if I were part of the family. I always felt loved and cared for. It meant so much to me. I will miss you very much.
Maura, it took me a long time to find the words.
In these moments, it’s hard for me that I can’t say goodbye and hug you for the last time.
I was hoping to see you again and hold your hand. You liked this so much too.
I will miss you so much. You will always be in my heart.
You were an example of integrity and respect. You were my teacher. You have always respected everyone in your life.
I want to thank you for giving me a second family. I will always remember and thank your family for welcoming me.
Thanks again for your patience.
You leave in silence. I would have liked to see you for the last time and hug you again but Covid-19 did not allow me. Even if I’m far away, I’ll be there on Tuesday with my heart to say Goodbye and give you the last kiss. You will always be in my heart, wherever I go.
Goodbye, Maura. Exemplary woman, mother, sister. I have always loved you and I will always love you.
May God welcome you into his arms and grant you eternal peace.
It was with heavy heart that I got the news of the death of my Aunt Maura. Please accept our condolences on this sad occasion and we know that this is a tough time for you all. Aunt Maura was always a warm hearted, happy aunt and we always looked forward to her visits to Belfast. I remember when Daniel and I came to stay with her in Toronto and she took us out shopping for my first ski gear purchases. I still have the Columbia ski jacket bought on that trip and can also still hear my Aunt Maura telling me to stop getting annoyed with shop assistants, who kept asking me if I needed help. We had a great few days with her and Martin in Toronto and will fondly look back on the times that we spent together. I know that this is a tough time for you all and we are thinking of you all. Always remember my Aunt Maura is watching over us all.
All our love
Lorraine, Daniel, Joshua & Nathan
Maura was my Godmother and she was the strongest women I knew, I will always remember her giving me her grown up high heels to use for dress up when I was a little girl cause she had tiny feet so they fit me…..she took me shopping and bought me my First Communion dress, I remember it like it was yesterday. I have so many great memories to hold on to of both my Auntie Maura and my Uncle Richard. Technically I am not a true niece (Richard is my Dads cousin) but she loved me and treated me as if I was and she taught me a lot as my Aunt and I am going to miss her very much but I am so blessed to have had her in my life. My heart felt condolences to all her family and specially my cousins, Martin, Sean and Kevin, thinking of you all and sending my love xox RIP Auntie Maura xoxoxo
Martin I’m very saddened to learn of the loss of you mother. Although I never met her I know that she was a remarkable woman as you always spoke so hightly of her. I also know that she raised a remarkable person in you. My thoughts prayer and compassion are with you and your family. Regards your colleague Richard Tillmann
Maura and Richard, Sean, Kevin and Martin were like an extended part of our family growing up. So many fantastic memories – my first rum and coke as a reward for washing the cars with Kevin, the first time I tried on a pair of high-heels because Maura’s were the perfect size for my 7 year old feet, the too cool laundry chute where we could jump right through to the basement. Maura, you will always hold a very special place in my heart and I thank you for everything, always. Sending Sean, Kevin, Martin and the whole family all my love. xo
Deepest Sympathy to Maura Entire family Those who think of her today a little prayer to Jesus say Deeply Regretted by your cousin in Belfast Mary Seenan Young RES T IN PEACE

Our family has so many memories from the times that we shared with Maura, Richard, Sean, Kevin & Martin. It was always a great time and we had many laughs over the years. We are so very sad to hear of Maura’s passing. She was always smiling and we feel so lucky to have known her. Sean, Kevin & Martin we are sending you so much strength and love as you move forward. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. ❤️💕 – Grace, Gerry, Jackie, Brenda & Kevin McMillan. 💜
It is with heavy heart I’m writing this. Maura and I have been friends for approximately 22 years. We went dancing, vacationing and a multitude of other deeds. In retrospect, I’m not only losing a friend I’m also losing my partner in “crime”. It’s not easy saying goodby to someone who has been a big part of your life. She will be sorely missed. My only consolation is, she is now with her loving husband, Richard.
My sincere condolences go to all her family. I’m sure this has been very a taxing time for all of you.
Aunt Irene is so heartbroken at the lose of her beautiful niece Maura. She was more like a wee sister and will have so many memories of growing up in Belfast and holidays in Ballyhornan and will always remember her beautiful smile. Our thoughts and prayers are with all her family at this very sad time.
I am so saddened to hear of Maura’s passing. My deepest condolences and prayers go out to all the family in this difficult time. Maura was a very good friend for many years and we enjoyed many social adventures together. She is such a vibrant, energetic person it is hard to think of her as not being with us any more. I shall always remember her with fondest affection and a smile – for all the laughs we had together through the years. God bless you, dear Maura.

 My sister Maura, always a giver, such a generous person, from when we were little, the beautiful clothes she sent us when living in the US . Taking me to my 1st ever restaurant, with the bridesmaids, when shopping for their dresses to ensure I didn’t feel left out. Maura, the bossy one, the one that always knew best …… she was such an inspiration and certainly such a massive influence in my life. She was my idol , I looked up to her in so many ways , her wisdom, her knowledge, and her compassion I look back on our many wonderful memories and I am so glad, so proud , to have her as a sister, a friend . I will miss her so much , her chats, her wisdom , her knowledge and especially her face time calls. To my beautiful sister we never got to say goodbye but I’ll let you go now. May you dance on into the next part of your journey. I love you xx

Sean, Kevin &Martin, our sympathy and prayers are with you and all the family at this sad time. May our Lord Jesus Christ give you comfort and peace. I was truly blessed to have known Maura for the past 50 years and to call her my friend. our families shared many good and hard times together. I thank God for her friendship. May she rest in peace

Maura the matriarch of the Corr family from the demise of our parents will be sorely missed with her wisdom as much in Ireland as in Canada.To venture out in 1967 with Richard from your home in Belfast surely was a pioneering feat that not many would venture to try.You where always there for us when bad times engulfed our family and helped all who needed help.We were proud of your achievements in life while raising your boys whom you bestowed on them the quality that makes families.We are devastated not to show our true love of you by being there for you but due to circumstances that is not possible.Your brother Tommy and wife Dorothy
Deepest condolences to Maura family, Our prayers & thoughts are with you at this sad time,
a flower on the grave fades, a tear dries, but God picks it up. go in peace beloved companion. farewell Maura, pray for us from up there and may the earth be light to you 💔💔💔😥😥😥
