Gwendolyn Jean
Harrop Josey, Age 96, Halifax, passed away in the VG Site, QEII, on September
2, 2020. Born in Halifax, she was a daughter of the late Fredrick J. and Helen

remembered for her love of the outdoors. As a young woman she spent many days
swimming and canoeing at the family's summer home in Kinsac. Gwen worked for
many years at Simpsons as a Personal Shopper and liked being able to shop every
day and not spend anything. Gwen, along with her husband Basil, loved to travel
with trips to Europe and Hawaii as well as many other locations throughout the
United States and Canada. They also spent many enjoyable summers at their
trailer at Evangeline Beach. Gwen was predeceased by her husband, Basil;
brother, Edgar Harrop; and sister, Eleanor Floyd. She will be missed by family
and friends. A private service will be held at a later date. Online condolences
