Sheila Sandys-Wunsch [nee Harper] passed away at the age of 88 in Victoria, BC. She was born in Croydon, England to George and Eliza Harper. She attended the Royal Academy of Music in London. She taught music at schools in Aberdeen and St. Andrew’s, Scotland prior to meeting her husband John (deceased) and immigrating to Canada. After periods of time in Tofino, Courtney and Victoria, the family relocated to a fishing outport in Newfoundland, which she probably wasn’t expecting! She continued teaching music in Newfoundland until relocating to Ontario. She and John finally moved back to BC where they enjoyed retirement. She was active in the church throughout her life and enjoyed travelling, gardening, dogs, and British murder mysteries in addition to her lifelong passion for music. She is survived by her children Michael (Sayuri), Donald (Gillian) and Helen.
A Funeral Service will be held at St. John the Divine on Thursday, November 21, 2024 at 2:30 pm.
