Florence Ann Burke,
1942 – 2024.
It is with deep sadness, but great hope that we announce
the passing of Florence Ann Burke of Antigonish, Nova Scotia, on
November 17, 2024, at nearly 82 years of age. Florence passed away
peacefully, surrounded by her family and is now at home with her Lord
and Savior.
Born in Inverness, Nova Scotia, in 1942, Florence moved to
Sydney as a young adult to pursue her nursing career at Sydney City
Hospital. It was in Sydney that she met her future husband
Lawrence Burke, and they married in Margaree in September of
1966.
After Lawrence’s untimely passing in 1974, Florence
devoted herself to raising their four children, relying on her faith
and the support of friends and family to navigate the challenges of
those difficult years.
Florence was a compassionate and dedicated nurse at St.
Martha’s Regional Hospital, where she was well-known for her
empathy and care. Even after retiring, she continued to care for
others in many ways, always willing to offer help and comfort to those
in need.
A woman of deep faith, Florence was an active member of St.
James United Church in Antigonish, as well as the broader Christian
community, including Nurses Christian Fellowship and InterVarsity
Christian Fellowship. Her home was always open to visitors, and she
had a gift for making everyone feel welcome and valued.
Florence’s love for her family and her faith shaped
countless cherished memories. Her children treasure the time spent
together at Atlantic Pioneer Camp, on road trips to visit relatives,
and during many family games nights.
Florence is survived by her siblings Bea, John (Elaine),
Betty (Gary), Robert (Sharon), Elmer (Martha), Edith (Don), and Bert
(Vanda). She is also survived by her brother-in-law
Ken.
She will be lovingly remembered by her four children, Joyce
(Murray), Janet (Tim), Kevin (Tammy), and Heather (Geoff), as well as
her nine grandchildren.
A private family burial will take place in Sunnybrae, Pictou
County. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later
date.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in
Florence’s memory to InterVarsity Christian Fellowship,
Nurses Christian Fellowship, or the St. Martha’s Hospital
Foundation.
