PICTOU LANDING – With heavy hearts we are saddened to announce the passing of Helen “Marguerite” (MacDougall) Hayne, 87, Pictou Landing, who passed away Wednesday, April 18, 2018 in the Aberdeen Hospital, New Glasgow, in the arms of her loving husband.
Going up the river on a tour
I met a girl I never seen before
She was pretty and she was sweet
And her name, Marguerite
Then we kissed and with a smile
I knew we’d be together for a while
70 years has passed and gone
But our love is still as strong
Percy W. Hayne

A devout Roman Catholic, she was a member of Christ the King Roman Catholic Church, Trenton, and after its closure, a member of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Roman Catholic Church, Pictou Landing First Nations until her passing.
