Eunice was an accomplished pianist, earning a Bachelor of Music degree from the University of Toronto. She was an excellent piano teacher, guiding and developing young pianists from beginner to matriculants. Her own love of music was nurtured and sustained through the many musical offerings available in Guelph such as the Guelph Spring Festival and Guelph Musicfest which she looked forward to attending every year.
For many years, Eunice enjoyed singing in the Trinity United Church Choir and was a member of the Trinity UCW (United Church Women). She was also a member of the Trinity Sunshine Club where she was known for preparing the most excellent tea. Always active, Eunice was a regular at DanceFit, then Jazzercise, Tai Chi, and her Wednesday night weight-lifting classes.
