Dr. Bette Mildred Stephenson (1924 – 2019)

The OHS is deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. Bette Stephenson last Monday, August 19, 2019. Our history records an outstanding and remarkable legacy of public service for the people of Ontario.

The OHS was honoured in May 2015 when Dr. Stephenson visited us and said that she “wanted to come and see the John McKenzie House again, as I came here many times as a young child…it is still beautiful…it is so important your organization saved this, as everything else in the area (Willowdale) has been destroyed.”
