Melba Eva Margaret MacWhirter 2020

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Melba Eva Margaret MacWhirter at the Centre d’accueil in New Carlisle on October 6th, 2020.
Melba was born July 31st, 1929 in Hopetown, Québec to Chisholm MacWhirter and Lillian Chatterton. She attended Hopetown School up to grade 9, received a scholarship for grade ten in New Carlisle. A second scholarship was offered for grade eleven, but Melba chose instead to go to Montreal to establish a career. She chose accounting for CN in Montreal. She enjoyed her work and had many friends. She joined the CN band, playing the drums and travelling with the band.
in 1953, Melba returned home on vacation and was offered a job teaching. Her real reason for staying was meeting the love of her life, Clifton Skene. They were married in Montreal in 1955.
They raised two children, Stephen and Eva. Melba and Clifton enjoyed visiting the children in New Brunswick. Of course, the trips always involved shopping too.
Melba was a marvellous cook and also enjoyed knitting and gardening. Her flowers are still in bloom.
While her children were growing up, Melba was an active Home and School member, Brownie leader and active member of St. Paul’ s Anglican Church while she lived in Shigawake. She was a highly respected member of that community.
In later years, Melba served as a founding member of the Golden Age club. She and Clifton served on the executive for many years. She enjoyed the various excursions with her friends in the club.
In 1973, after their land was expropriated in Shigawake, the family moved to Hope next to Melba’ s parents, where she was a great caregiver to her parents in their final years.
Melba resided at home until early September when she, of necessity, went to Maria Hospital, and after transferred to New Carlisle. She spent her final weeks there. Her passing was peaceful.
She leaves to mourn : her devoted husband Clifton, (of 65 years) son Stephen, daughter Eva (Wayne Smith). Brother Gordon and sister-in-law Anne, sister-in-law Audrey, brothers-in-law Winston (Mildred), Joe (Gaby), Conrad Jones and many nieces and nephews who adored her.
Her family and friends will keep her in their hearts forever.
Due to the present situation a funeral will take place in 2021.

Nos plus sincères sympathies à la famille et aux amis de Melba Eva Margaret MacWhirter 2020..
