Kidson, Clara K. (McCurdy) – Age 102 of Lake Charlotte passed away on February 9, 2025.
Born in Middle Musquodoboit, she was a daughter of the late Robert S. and Jamesina (Moore) McCurdy. Her father died early in her life, so she and her two brothers, William and Samuel were brought up by a widowed mother. Clara was a graduate of Provincial Normal College, Truro, in 1941. She taught at 1 and 2-room schools in Lindsay Lake, Lake Charlotte, Musquodoboit South Section, Musquodoboit North Section and Black Point. She left teaching to become a full-time mother and homemaker, a vocation at which she excelled.
Surviving are sons, John (Heather) and Paul (Krista); daughters, Anita (Barry) Daye, Diana (Eddie), and Olga; 9 grandchildren; 13 great grandchildren; and brother, William. She was predeceased by her loving husband of 42 years, James W.; son, James R. (Lynda); and daughter, Linda (Garry) Laybolt; brother, Samuel; half-sisters, Ada and Greta; and half-brother, Everett.
She enjoyed feeding/watching the birds, crosswords and reading. Church was an important part of her life; she was a member of the United Church and a Sunday School teacher for many years at Lake Charlotte Union Church.
The family thanks the many Home Care workers involved in her care over the past number of years, as well as the doctors, nurses, and staff at Twin Oaks Hospital. Thank you also to Arimathea Funeral Cooperative.
Cremation has taken place.
As per Clara’s wishes, there will be no visitation. A service will take place on Wednesday, February 19 at 11:00 a.m. in First United Church, Musquodoboit Harbour with Rev. Joan Griffin officiating. A private family committal will take place at a later date in Lake Charlotte Union Church Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, consider making a donation in her memory to Lake Charlotte Union Church Cemetery Company, Box 5, Lake Charlotte, NS B0J 1Y0; Musquodoboit Harbour Pastoral Charge-First United Church, 7964 Highway 7, Box 209, Musquodoboit Harbour, NS B0J 2L0; or Hope for Wildlife.
