She was predeceased by: her parents, Nelson Whitehead and Gladys Whitehead (Damm); her daughter-in-law Annette Atton; and her brother Howard Whitehead. She is survived by: her husband Walter; her children, Susan Messerschmidt (Paul), Mark and Janet Coulter (Tom) of Fergus; her grandchildren, Christopher (Lesa), Lindsay (Kyle), Kerri (Greg), Kailyn (Jake) and Thomas (Rhiana); her great grandchildren, Makayla, Colton, Ally, Cameron and Kaidance; her sister Ethel Weick (William) of Kitchener; and her sister-in-law Mary Whitehead of Walkerton.
