Inga-Britt Söderberg (2 February 1935 – 15 February 2019) was a Finnish model, and the 1955 Miss Finland and Miss Europe.[1][2]
In 1956, Söderberg married a Canadian diplomat, Donald D. Cliffe, and two years later the couple moved to Canada, where they had two daughters.[1]
Prior to her beauty pageant victories, Söderberg had worked as a post office clerk.[2] Afterwards she began modelling, which continued until the early 1970s, as well as appearing in at least one film.[3]
Later still, she switched to sheep farming, running her 400-sheep farm in Ontario for 30 years from 1971 to 2001.[1][4]
She died in 2019 in a care home in Fredericton, New Brunswick. She had been diagnosed with breast cancer just a few days earlier.[1]
