Patricia Marlene (Young) MacLean
1953-2018
Patricia Marlene (Young) MacLean, age 65, Port
Hawkesbury
We regret to announce the passing of our dear wife, mother,
sister and friend, Patricia Marlene MacLean, on Monday, July 16, 2018
at Saint Martha’s Regional Hospital, Antigonish
NS.
Born July 1, 1953 in North Sydney NS, she was the daughter of
the late Michael Gabriel and Sarah Alvina (Johnson)
Young.
Marlene lived in Toronto ON, Thunder Bay ON, Calgary AB,
Edmonton AB, Auckland, New Zealand, Sydney Mines NS, Stellarton NS and
finally Port Hawkesbury NS. She was successful at many occupations:
banking, compensation adjudication, accounting and as an entrepreneur.
She always found time to give back to community through school
committees, church organizations and religious education, especially
giving her time to assist individuals with intellectual
disabilities.
Marlene was a dedicated wife and a creative mother who took
great pride in caring for her family – stepping aside from
her career to raise her children. Her wit, wisdom and great sense of
humour will be greatly missed.
Marlene is survived her husband, Peter Lean MacLean, her son
MacKenzie James, Port Hawkesbury NS and her daughter Sarah Catherine,
Dartmouth NS.
She is also survived by four sisters, Sharon (Archie)
Forrestall, Mulgrave, Beverly (Doug) Currie, Dartmouth, Bernice
Masters, Dartmouth, Charmaine (Victor) Sakalauskas, Dartmouth; two
brothers, Greg (Chris) Oshawa ON and Grant of Peterborough
ON.
She was predeceased by her parents and a brother
Michael.
As per Marlene’s wishes, there will be no visitation or
memorial service. She has donated her remains to scientific study. In
lieu of a formal service, Marlene asked that you consider providing a
« random act of kindness » – a simple, kind gesture
that will help make someone else’s day.
Memorial donations can be made to Marlene’s favorite
organization: the ROC Society Regional Occupation Centre, 3
MacQuarrie Drive Ext., Port Hawkesbury, NS B9A 3A3 or to a charity of
your choice
