WESTON, Lillian “Ling”

Lillian “Ling” Weston

Passed on October 29, 2020 at the age of 86. She passed peacefully in her home that she cherished, amongst her family. Ling was the mother of 3, and grandmother to 3. She was an educator, artist, folk dancer, world traveller, lover of nature, pets, animals, music, family and friends. She was truly east meets west and was playfully coined (by her 2nd son) “the original Chinese hippie”. Ling was uniquely original in spirit and mind, which will be dearly missed.

A graveside service is planned on Salt Spring Island, time and date to be published in the Driftwood next week.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks you to consider a donation to the Salt Spring Island Conservancy in the memory of Ling Weston.

A Celebration of Life will be held Saturday Nov. 14, 2020 at 1pm at Ganges Community Cemetery.
