Marjorie Anne Leopold
1944-2018
Marjorie Anne « Marge » Leopold, New Minas,
July 13, 1944 – April 25, 2018. It is with great sadness
that we announce the passing of our mother, grandmother, sister and
friend. Marjorie was born in Chester Grant to the late Harry and Faye
(Walker) Alders. Marjorie loved her family and friends. She was
well-known for never letting company go without a cup of tea and some
of her delicious baked goods. Her children and grandchildren were her
pride and joy. She was a hardworking woman that worked many years in
the retail and food services, but never shied away from hard labour
such as apple picking or potato harvesting. She was a member of the
Kentville Legion where she spent many years playing darts. She also
enjoyed long drives, games of chance, baking, her favourite TV shows
and spending time with friends and family. She is survived by her
long-time companion, Eric Arnburg; children, Terri (James) Brown,
Centreville; Cheryl Rogers, Kentville and Tammy Gregory, New Minas;
grandchildren, Erin Connell, Clayton (Samantha Hamilton) Rogers and
Blake (Elise Snow-Kropla) Brown; great grandchildren, Noah and
Ireland; brothers, Russell (Marcia) Alders and Donnie Alders; sisters,
Linda (Kenny) Grant, Viola (Eric) McInnis, Marie (Robert) Hatfield,
Audrey (Jack) Carter, Harriet (Wayne) Cox, Barbie (Rick Deveau)
Alders, Ruby (Timmy) Welton and several nieces and nephews. Besides
her parents, she was predeceased by her husband, Freddie Leopold;
brother, Harry Alders and son-in-law, David Gregory. Family would like
to send a heart felt thank you to the nurses, doctors and the staff of
Medical A at the Valley Regional Hospital who made her last days as
comfortable as possible. She truly enjoyed meeting all of you. Thank
you to the Royal Canadian Legion, Kings Branch No. 6, Kentville and
the Ladies Auxiliary for your generosity during this time. As per
Marjorie’s request there will be no visitation. A memorial
service and reception will be held at the Royal Canadian Legion, Kings
Branch No.6, River Street, Kentville at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, April 29,
2018, Reverend Jack Carter and Reverend Audrey Carter officiating. An
intimate sunset committal service will be held at 7:00 p.m. that
evening in Holy Cross Cemetery, Kentville. Donations in memory may be
made to the Carey Me Fund. On-line condolences or inquiries may be
directed to www.whitefamilyfuneralhome.com.
« Missed by all, may she rest in
peace »
