Died in her sleep on December 23rd, 1992.
She was a great-grand-daughter of Catharine Parr Traill and co-authored a book in her honour. Mimi graduated in 1928 from the Ontario College of Art, later had a career that brought international fame with her marionettes - some of which are preserved in the Ontario Puppet Museum.
A member of The Herb Society of America, a founding member of the Southern Ontario Unit (1968) and devoted, hard working member of our Unit. She was a keen gardener, also a potter - her ceramic St. Francis presided over her garden, which was selected and is contained in Herb Garden Design by Swanson and Rady.
Mimi was Editor of the Herb Watcher from Newsletter #3, February 1976 until Newsletter #15, September 1982. She had a way with words that was both refreshing and stimulating. Mimi was generous with her talents and her herbs. |
