Juliet Meighan Alleyne, 78, of

Bowmanville, Ontario, passed

away on September 29, 2021,

at Etobicoke General Hospital

of complications following a

stroke she suffered in Guyana

in May of 2021. Juliet was born

on June 3, 1943, in Campbellville,

Guyana, to parents Ita

Albertha and James Alleyne.

She attended St. Roses High

School and graduated from

the University of Guyana with

a degree in Business

Administration. She also graduated

from Pitman Commercial

Institute in Guyana. Juliet was a

globe trotter. While living in

Guyana she worked at the

following places: the Forestry

Department in Georgetown,

the Office of the Prime

Minister of Guyana as Special

Political Assistant, Guyana

Airways as Corporation

Secretary and briefly served in the

Guyana National Service.

Juliet travelled to London,

England in 1964 and worked

as a Legal Secretary. In 1970,

she returned to Guyana, and

left again in 1990 to live in

Canada. She retired there

from the Workplace Safety and

Insurance Board where she

held the position of

Administrative Assistant. Juliet also

lived in Bermuda for a brief

time after retirement and had

spent much of her time before

her passing in her beloved

hometown of Georgetown,

Guyana. Juliet was an avid

reader, loved travelling and

gourmet cooking and even

had her own restaurant for a

while. She was a personal

coach, had a passion for art,

spoke conversational French

life and will be sorely missed.

you to all the nurses, doctors

and staff that provided care

for her at the Woodland's

Hospital and St. Joseph's
