Christena P Summers 1930 2022

We are deeply saddened to announce the
sudden passing of our cherished mother, grandmother and
great-grandmother, Christena Pearl (Henwood, Carter)
Summers, 92, at the Cumberland Regional Health Care
Centre, Amherst, on Tuesday, March 22, 2022, surrounded by the love of
her family in person and thoughts.
Christena was the daughter of the late
Thomas and Ethel (Graham) Henwood, born January 22, 1930 in Springhill
Junction.
She is survived by her children, Marlene
Anderson, Oxford and Brian (Cathy) Carter, Cole Harbour;
grandchildren, Karina (Michael) Gagnon, Amherst, Craig (Dayna)
Anderson, Eastern Passage, Matthew (Heidi) Carter, Lawrencetown,
Halifax Co., Geoffrey (Juli) Carter, Kentville. She was so
very happy to tell everyone she was the proud Nanny to nine great
grandchildren, Braedon and Julia Gagnon, Evan and Nathan Anderson,
Garritt, Maverick and Landyn Carter, Zoe and Callie Carter. Doting
Aunt to many loving nieces and nephews who never failed to receive a
birthday card every year, and lots of “opinionated” sound
advice. They reciprocated with much love, phone calls and
visits from near and far up until the day before her passing. She is
also survived by her sister, Olive Holland, Maple Ridge,
BC.
She was predeceased by her husband, Ken
Summers, former husband, Earl Carter and son-in-law Eric
Anderson. Also by her brothers, Victor, Ralph, Cyril, Harold
and sister, Muriel Brine.
Mom began working at the ripe old age of
14 at Jimmy Demetre’s, hired on the spot, not knowing how to make
change, but she was determined, as she was with everything in life,
and worked there until after she was married in 1949. Before
that she worked on the family farm in Clairmont with brother Harold,
before and after school.
When Marlene and Brian were young the
door was always open to friends, with something delicious waiting for
a treat after school. To this day when we run into old
friends the first question is, “How is your
Mom?”.
For many years Chris was the leader of
the Explorers at St. Andrews-Wesley United Church, Springhill,
organizing skating parties, sleigh rides and many fun times.
She was a long time member of the U.C.W.
In 1972 Chris moved to Dartmouth to be
close for the birth of her first grandchild and stayed for 32 years,
making many friends including her dear friend Virginia Dunn,
Bridgewater and Art and Eileen Smith, Dartmouth.
In 1994 she met and married the love of
her life, Ken Summers and they shared 17 wonderful years
together. They enjoyed playing cribbage, card partys,
bowling, day trips and her family and friends.
Arrangements have been placed under the
care and direction of A. H. Brown Funeral
Home, 5 McFarlane Street, Springhill, (902 597
2361). We will be celebrating the lives of Christena Summers
and her sister Muriel Brine from St. Andrew’s Wesley United Church,
Springhill, on Saturday, June 25, 2022 at 2 pm, Ruth Gamble, DLM,
officiating, followed by internment in the Hillside
Cemetery.
If so desired, donations in Chris’
memory may be made to St. Andrews Wesley United Church, Springhill or
charity of choice.
