Margaret McPhee

Bunny was a gentle spirit with a heart as big as the mountains she loved. She died suddenly and unexpectedly while on vacation in the Mediterranean, on the island of Crete in Greece. She will be missed by many people whose lives she touched over the years. She leaves behind a family that loved her very much: Mick, her husband and best friend of nearly 47 years; Don, their eldest; Eric, their second, his wife, Stephanie and their three boys, Stephen - 15, Kenton - 12, and Camden - 10; Diana, their eldest daughter, and her daughter Sage - 10; and Kate, their youngest, her husband, Matthieu, and their two children, Mara - 10, and Kai - 8. The great love of her life was the senior population and she worked with that group of people in every place where she worked and prayed. She was a leader in the Active Older Adult program both locally and nationally during her 20+ years with the YMCA. She started a senior camping experience at the YMCA of the Rockies in Granby, CO and dedicated it to her mother. She worked with the senior program at the city of Lakewood for a brief period and then devoted herself to the same population for several years with the city of Aurora at the Aurora Senior Center. She was in charge of a dynamic and wonderful program for seniors at her church, St. John's Episcopal Cathedral in Denver. She will be missed by all who met her and worked with her in all of these capacities, as well as all those with whom she worked or played.

Interment wil be at the church in All Souls Walk immediately following Mass. A memorial reception will follow in Dagwell Hall at the church after the services conclude.
