    1. [S4] Obituary.
      Joanne Locke Sailer-Kronlachner (née Hodgson) 1932-2022.
      Peacefully at home on Thursday, February 3, 2022 with her brother Jay Hodgson and sister-in-law Xiaodong Zhou by her side.
      Predeceased by her husband of 52 years, Hubert Sailer-Kronlachner of Gaflenz, Austria and her brother Allan Archibald Hodgson of London, England.
       Eldest of four siblings, Joanne was born and brought up in Montreal in the family of Jonathan Archibald and Anne Churchill Hodgson. After graduating from Netherwood School in Rothsay, New Brunswick, Joanne worked as a laboratory technician at the Montreal Children’s Hospital, a job she loved dearly. Joanne met Hugh in Montreal where they lived until 1976 when Hugh was transferred to the Toronto office of the Royal Trust.
       Joanne is remembered fondly by her surviving brothers Jay and David Hodgson and their families, as well as the family of her brother Allan. She taught her younger brothers Jay and Allan in high school how to drive and many life lessons young men ought to know. She was a devoted wife and a gracious host of countless family dinners over Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Having struggled and overcome alcoholism herself, Joanne volunteered for several decades at Alcoholics Anonymous to help many others facing the same challenges. She and Hugh travelled widely around the world and she treasured especially their trips to Africa and New Zealand. Joanne enjoyed following the news on TV and was always ready to start a heated conversation about Canadian and US politics. Later in life, she watched programs such as National Geographic Wild or the like every day.
       The family would like to thank the nurses and staff of the Ontario public health system, who provided outstanding holistic medical care and support that enabled Joanne to spend the final days of her life at home, as she wished. We also would like to thank her longtime caregiver Mila Ortiz for her diligent and loving care.
       Joanne will be interred in the Hodgson family plot in Mount Royal cemetery this summer. Donations in Joanne’s memory, if so desired, should be made to Alcoholics Anonymous.
