Virginia Cameron
1926-2018
Virginia Maria (Manzi)
Cameron
August 2, 1926 –
December 23, 2018
Heaven gained another angel on December 23, 2018 when
Virginia Cameron, surrounded by her family, left this earth to join
her soul mate and husband of 71 years. Virginia was a war bride who
came to Canada in 1946 (via Pier 21) to join her husband Harold, to
start their wonderful life together. It was a true love story that was
shared and admired by many. She bravely left her home in England (as a
young girl) to start her own family in a new country… and
she loved her family fiercely. She was proud of every member of her
family, and she loved to cook for them and show them off to her
friends. She was energetic with a wonderful spirit, and she loved to
sing, dance, cook, garden and paint. Her rock garden in
McPherson’s Mills was the envy of all the
neighbours.
She was a devoted and loving wife, mother,
grandmother, great grandmother, daughter and sister. She leaves behind
her brother Bonny (Susan) Manzi, daughters Pamela (Robert) Campbell,
Wendy (Rod) McCarthy, Angela (Lloyd) MacGregor, son David (Diane)
Cameron, grandchildren Gina, Gillian, Erin, Amelia, Maggie, Mark,
Luke, Christopher, Maria, David, Ryan, and great grandchildren
Cameron, Owen, Jack, James, Max, Blake, Ailish, Finley, Mack, Laura,
David, Eric and Avery. She also left behind her sister-in-law and
special friend Elizabeth MacDougall. She was pre-deceased by mother
Amelia and father Felix and sisters Marie (Fred) Ford and Rita (Chris)
Danielsen.
Our family would like to thank her daughter Wendy and
caregiver Helen for the tremendous 24-hour care they have provided
over the past few years. Helen was a special angel sent to us and will
always be a part of our family. We would also like to thank the nurses
and staff of 8.3 QEII (and a special thank you to Dr. Burton and Dr.
Goth) who gave our family such loving support over the last five
weeks.
In memory of Virginia, donations can be made to
Cystic Fibrosis CFIT Research Canada in honour of her great grandson,
Blake Brien.
Visitation will take place on Friday, December 28
from 6pm-8pm at the H.W. Angus Funeral Home on King Street in New
Glasgow, and the funeral will take place on Saturday, December 29 at
11am at the same location. A reception will follow the funeral, and a
private burial will take place at MacPherson’s Mills
Cemetery.
