Dollard, Mary Lillian ‘Lil’
(Mahar) of Canso. We celebrate the life of Mary Lillian
‘Lil’ (Mahar) Dollard, 84, who passed away
peacefully at home on Wednesday, April 1, 2020.
Lil loved having her children home, especially her beloved
grandchildren, Carter, Rhiane, Danielle, Alison and Sophie. She
enjoyed a good game of cards, berry picking, walking on the trail,
travelling, especially to her birthplace, PEI, and baking; she made
the best pies. She graced our lives, made us better people, and we
deeply miss her. Remember her and smile, it would make her
happy.
Lil was devout and sang in both the Star of the Sea and
Ecumenical choirs. She made many friends while working at Canso Sea
Foods and throughout the community.
She is survived by loving husband of 60 years, Henry Sr.;
son, Henry (Bonnie); daughters, Marie (Rob), Cecilia (Paul); five
grandchildren, and many nieces, nephews. She was predeceased by her
parents, James Thomas and Mary Cecilia (McGee) Mahar; brothers, Jim
(Sadie) and Merlin (Margaret); stepsister, Mary (Bert).
We thank the doctors, nurses, and staff of Eastern Memorial
Hospital for their excellent care and kindness. Cremation has taken
place; service at a later date, there will be no visitation by her
request. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Eastern
Memorial Hospital or charity of your choice.
