It is with great sadness and broken hearts we announce the passing of Susan (Etta) H Jessome, 89, on Monday, November 7, 2022, at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital.
Susan was a much-loved mother, wife, sister, aunt, grandmother, and great grandmother. She was affectionately known as Big Nana.
Etta was born in Mill Creek on July 4, 1933, where she lived her entire life. She was the daughter of the late Thomas and Susan (Nicholas) Marsh.
She worked as a cook for many years in various restaurants. Her passion was her family, and she made many trips to Ontario and Massachusetts to spend time with her family.

She is survived by daughters Maureen Brown (Robert) Scituate MA, Brenda Dentinger (Gerry) Kitchener, and Lynne Jessome, son Gary Jessome (Basia) Quispamsis NB, daughter-in-law Maureen (Ross Jessome), ten grandchildren and fourteen great-grandchildren.
A special thank you to her granddaughters Janice and Karen for all the love and support.

Our lives from day to day,
But the love and memory of you,
Shall never pass away.
