With great sadness we, the family of Carol Elizabette
MacIntosh, announce her passing on Wednesday, August 10, 2022, at the
VG Hospital, Halifax. Carol was born in Halifax to the late
Frederick Alexander and Pearl Lavinia (Gillis) Grant.
She is survived by her husband of 64 years Carl and their
children Grant (Liz), Stewart (Maureen), Jennifer Lee (Danny), Jane
Hamilton (Hugh), Sarah (Jerod), special daughter Myrtle Myers,
grandchildren Harley, Katy, Daniel and Ainsley and sister-in-law;
Janice Grant
Besides her parents, she was predeceased by her son; Ian
Alexander; sisters, Phylis (late Jim) Foran, Ethel Grant, Vivian (late
Matt) Stankiewicz; brother; Fred Grant, brothers-in-law, Frederick
MacIntosh, Earl Wright, Keith MacIntosh and sister-in-law; Karen (
late Joe) Dort
Carol had strong faith in her creator and an adoration of the
natural world; she loved all God’s creations. Her
kindness was known to all and guided her to a career in later life as
an RN. Carol’s hands were forever moving and many
felt their warmth through a sip of her chowder, a warm roll, or being
lovingly cared for. Her legacy will continue through the many gifts
she created including kilts, quilts, mittens, hats, jewelry and
carvings, just to name a few of her many talents. From parade floats
to wedding dresses, to matching dresses for her girls, and outfits for
her grandchildren, Carol did it all.
Carol’s family wish to express sincere gratitude to
the staff at the Guysborough Memorial Hospital for the kind and
compassionate care of our mother. A casual celebration of
her life will take place at the MacIntosh family beach, 1420 Highway
344, Port Shoreham, NS on Saturday August 20th at 1pm. If it’s a
beautiful day bring your swimsuit, if it’s not, still do, as Mum would
say there is never a bad day at the beach.
Memorial donations can be made to the Guysborough Memorial
Hospital Auxiliary. Words of comfort may be forwarded to the
family at www.haverstocks.com
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Carol Elizabette MacIntosh 1939 2022..
