Winnifred “Winnie” MacDonald
1936-2020
It is with great sadness that the family
of the late Winnifred “Winnie” Maude
MacDonald, age 83, of Amherst, announce her passing on
March 12, 2020 at the Cumberland Regional Health Care
Centre.
Born in Fenwick, NS, she was the
daughter of the late Edgar and Mildred Porter.
Winnie loved to cook and was happiest
when surrounded by her family. She never turned anyone away
from her table saying “what’s one more”,
and the tea and coffee pots were never empty.
She will be forever loved and sadly
missed.
She was a caring, devoted wife to Bill
MacDonald, amazing and strong mother to sons Billy (Susan), Bobby
(Joan), Rod (Kim), Ross (Debbie), Jerry (Gisele), Keith (Charlene),
Kenny (Michelle), daughters Heather, Irma Gagnon, and Trudy (Danny)
Hurley. Also survived by 21 grandchildren, 22 great grandchildren, and
2 nieces, Dawn (Carson) Thompson, and Di (Kenny)
Matthews.
Besides her parents, she was predeceased
by a son, grandson, and son in law.
Arrangements are under the care and
direction of the Jones Family Funeral
Centre, 70 Church St., Amherst, NS (902-667-8777) There
will be no visitation or funeral service. A graveside service will be
held in the spring.
A special thanks to all doctors, nurses,
and staff for the wonderful care they gave our
“MOM”.
Donations in her memory may be made to
the charity of your choice.
Sharing of memories and condolences may
