Virginia R. Potter
1952-2018
Virginia Ruth
Potter, 66 years of age, of Halifax, NS, formerly of
Springhill, NS passed away on Saturday, December 8, 2018 at the All
Saints Hospital, Springhill, NS.
Born in Springhill, NS, she was a
daughter of Erlene (Beaton) Potter and the late Kenneth
Potter.
Virginia was a very kind and generous
person to all. After graduating from the Nova Scotia College
of Art and Design with a Masters in Fine Arts, she stayed on in
Halifax and taught in various schools for 34 years. She very
much enjoyed her profession. Very talented, she enjoyed
painting and making jewelry as well as other fine arts items outside
of school. As a true chef, she loved to cook, as well as
travel, and entertain, spending time with family and
friends. Her favorite past time was time at her cottage at
the beach.
Virginia will be sadly missed by her
mother, Erlene, sisters Cathy Potter, Springhill, Melissa
(Christopher) Ellwood, Hammonds Plains NS; nephews, Kenneth (Almida),
Joseph (Laura) and Jack, all of whom she loved spending time
with.
Besides her father, she was predeceased
by brothers, Joseph, Roderick and Eric.
Arrangements are under the care and
direction of A.H. Brown Funeral Home, 5
McFarlane St., Springhill, NS (902-597-2361). No visitation or service
by request. A family graveside service will take place in
the Mapleton Cemetery in the spring.
A special thanks to the neurology team
and nurses at the QE 2 Hospital, especially Dr. Jessica Dawe for their
compassion during this time.

contributions may be made to the Salvation Army, or the charity of
your choice.
