Obituary of Helen Sherri MacDonald
Helen Sherri MacDonald (Alma) October 27th 1950 – Sept 5th 2024
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of our mother.
She was the daughter of James and Gwen Dalling.
Mom devoted herself to her family, to her husband Scott R MacDonald and especially to us boys, with her constant love and encouragement, she always reminded us how proud she was.
Mom loved being a grandmother to her three grandchildren, each of them brought much joy and happiness to her. Mom also loved to be known as “FA” (favorite Aunt) from niece Bobi and nephew Ben MacDonald.
After graduating from West Pictou District High, Mom spent her professional life working for MTT/Bell Aliant where she worked in Operator Services for 34yrs. Working alongside many, that became very close friends/family.
Mom was a very social person who enjoyed spending time with friends and family. Attending charity BBQ’s, church suppers, dances, playing cards with her card group, and of course bowling. Often you could hear her laugh over the crowd before you actually spotted her.
She enjoyed being outside watching the birds and reading a book or busy planting and puttering in her garden. Mom also enjoyed baking, known for her butterscotch pies.
