Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honour the extraordinary life of Beth Hundey, who passed away at the age of 40 this past April after a courageous battle with cancer. She was wife to Seneca and stepmother to Percy, cherished daughter of Rick and the late Jane Hundey, sister of Eric and Tim and their wives, Julie and Yvonne, and an aunt who was adored by her nieces and nephews.
Incredibly bright, she finished her PhD in geography at Western University in 2014. She later served as a professor at Western and was widely respected on campus and throughout Canada, in fact, for the innovations she made specifically in the area of curriculum development.
A passionate advocate for fighting climate change as well, Beth was loved, respected and admired. May she rest in peace.
