Notes - Winnifred was an elegant woman who was fond of the arts and fashion. She had a particular passion for hats. She loved to paint, knit, write and read. She was an excellent homemaker. She loved to can fruit and vegetables from Lloyd's garden and she liked to bake pies and muffins. She was such a consummate host that she even kept a record of every meal she ever hosted including a list of who the guests were, what food was served, and which dishes were used, so that she would never repeat the same hosting experience twice for the same person.
Winnifred was involved in the United Church Women's Association at Robinson United Church in London, Ontario. She was president of the Women's Canadian Club of London. She participated in the University of Western Ontario Faculty Wives' Club, the London Council of Woman, and in her book club.
