AIRD, Emily (née Bushko) 1923-2024

Emily Aird, née Bushko, peacefully passed away at Ste. Anne’s Veterans’ Hospital, on June 4, 2024, at 101 years of age. She was the beloved wife of the late James Maiben Aird, dear mother of the late James Michael (Jay) and Ron (Liliane), grandmother of Daniel (Sarah), step grandmother of Kevin (Kelly) and step great grandmother of the wonderful Alexie, sister of the late Peter Bushko (Mary), the late Elsie Bushko and the late Lillian Zenko (Rudy).

Emily was proud of being a truly adventurous spirit that family, friends and the dedicated, nurturing Veterans’ Hospital staff will miss. She always encouraged and challenged others to do their best and to unapologetically follow their dreams as she openly appreciated all accomplishments. She left her mark through inspiration and example and by sharing her many skills, talents and intellect.

A memorial service will be held September 21, 2024, at 2 PM at St. Mary’s Anglican Church, 261 Main Road, Hudson, QC J0P 1H0. A celebration of her life will follow at the Hudson Legion Hall, 56 Beach Road, Hudson, QC J0P 1H0.
