– Calgary, Alberta
It is with profound sadness that the family of
Mary Louise Howe (nee Nelson) of Calgary,
AB, announces her passing on Friday, January 26, 2024, at the age of
71. Born on June 9, 1952, in Springhill, NS, she was the daughter of
the late Harold and Murial (nee Boran)
Nelson.
Mary Louise spent her childhood in Springhill,
NS, graduating from Springhill High School in 1970. In the fall of
that year, she began attending Mount Allison University in Sackville,
NB, where she received her Bachelor of Arts degree in 1973. She
continued her studies at St. Francis Xavier University in Antigonish,
NS, receiving her Bachelor of Education degree in 1974. She started
her teaching career in the fall of that year with the Springhill
School Board.
On July 26, 1975, Mary Louise married Douglas
Howe and moved from Springhill, NS, to Grand Bank, NL. In 1976, Mary
Louise and Doug moved to Calgary, AB, where she continued her teaching
career with the Calgary Board of Education until her retirement in
2007.
Mary Louise was known for her dedicated
friendships. Her friends from childhood remained close to her
throughout her life and those friendships were deeply cherished. She
brought warmth and humour to countless friends and family near and
far. She was a devoted wife and mother. When summer vacation came
around, Mary Louise would take the children to visit her parents at
their cottage near Pugwash, NS. Time at the beach was a great joy to
Mary Louise. It was where she enjoyed time with both family and
friends.
Mary Louise will be lovingly remembered by her
husband, Doug, daughter, Kimberly Howe (Jeremy Resch) and their two
children, Evelyn and Amelia, of Calgary, AB; son, David (Paige) Howe
of Calgary, AB; brother, Barry (Dorothy) Nelson of Thunder Bay, ON,
and their daughter, Karen (Keith) Hamilton of Guelph, ON;
sister-in-law Sandra (Alan) Colwell of Saint John, NB, and their
children, Shawnee (Peter) Robinson of Berryton, NB, and Timothy
Colwell of Saint John, NB.
Mary Louise was predeceased by her loving
parents, Harold and Muriel (Boran) Nelson of Springhill, NS; and
father and mother-in-law, Reginald and Edna (nee Hart) Howe of Sus,
NB.
The family would like to give special thanks to
Dr. Mark Sosnowski for his care over the last four
years.
A Celebration of Mary’s Life will be
held at a later date. If friends so desire, memorial tributes may be
made directly to the charity of the donor’s
choice.
In living memory of Mary Louise Howe, a tree will
be planted in the Ann & Sandy Cross Conservation
Area.
