Iva White (Feb 7, 1923 — Feb 22, 2015)

After Iva and her husband Bill, built their cottage in Hunters Bay in 1961, Iva spent all her summers there, first with her sons, Steve and Gord, then with Bill after his retirement, and after Bill’s death, with her Golden Retriever, Chelsea, until failing health prevented her from traveling in 2011.  

Her family would join her on weekends and vacations and they would always play card games and do jigsaw puzzles. She loved everything about Kahshe: the water, the trees, the birds, the animals, and her neighbours, who also summered there, and with whom she shared many happy times. She helped organize the Housey's Rapids Picnic for years and took many photos for the picnic's photo album. She loved talking to everyone who attended. Sons Steve and Gord, daughters-in-law Brooke and Tien, and grandchildren Evan and Julie (and Chelsea) continue to use and enjoy the cottage.
