Heffernan, Francis
«Frank», 82, peacefully passed away at the
Palliative Care Unit of St. Martha’s Regional Hospital,
surrounded by his loved ones. A resident of South River Road, Frank
was the son of the late Margaret (Girlie) and John Dan
Heffernan.
Born in Georgeville, he learned
the value of hard work at an early age, working with his father on
their small family farm and later with fishing. Frank was a devoted
husband, father and grandfather, especially during Minnie and
Shawn’s illnesses.
A woodsman by trade, but a story teller at heart, Frank
loved nothing more than going for a double double and a drive with his
good friend AJ. He also loved visiting with his grandchildren and
celebrating their various accomplishments. Frank loved to eat fish
(only fresh) and tell stories that were ALMOST the truth. Frank prided
himself in being «a good Tory» and having those around him
always laughing at his witty remarks. He enjoyed getting to know those
who crossed his path, ensuring no one left a
stranger.
He is pre-deceased by his wife of 57 years, Minnie, and
his son, Shawn. He is survived by son David (Eileen) Heffernan, and
daughter Lisa (John A) MacDonald. He will be deeply missed by his
grandchildren, Andrea and Breanna Heffernan, Lauren, Andrew and Brent
MacDonald. He is also survived by siblings Kay (late Silvio) Artuso,
Patsy (late John) Wallace, Marian (Joe) Neary, Bernie (Brenda)
Heffernan, and many nieces, nephews and extended family members. He is
predeceased by brothers Johnny, Leo, Roddie, Donnie and
Carmen.
Visitation will be held on
Monday, March 20th from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 pm in
C.L. Curry Funeral Home, 135 College St, Antigonish. A private funeral
mass will be held at his request. Burial to follow in the parish
cemetery at a later date. Memorial donations may be made to CA-R-MA or
the charity of your choice.
The family would
like to express heartfelt thanks to Dr Glenn Gallivan and Dr. Emily
Rice, and the doctors, nurses and allied health care workers of St.
Martha’s Regional Hospital, the VON and Antigonish
Homemakers. We would also like to thank EMS paramedics for their
outstanding kindness and compassion over the past months. A special
thank you to his great neighbours and everyone who came to visit
and/or sent treats during his illness. Online condolences:
