The preceding was written by our mom, always
wanting to be prepared.
Our Mom (and nanny and “big nanny”)
was famous for the care and support of her children and grandchildren.
She was unwavering in her kindness and giving of herself to friends,
family and strangers. Known especially for her cooking, chauffeuring
and as her grandchildren’s number one fan at every concert,
game, graduation and event. She was always there when we needed her.
Many looked forward to her cookies/squares and particularly the nuts
and bolts at Christmas. She was deeply loved by her large network of
family and friends. Her kindness and positivity and love of family
will be carried forward in the lives of those that knew her. To the
staff at Shannex – Blomidon Court, we thank you for
everything. You are heroes.
As per Mom’s wishes, there will be no visitation. A
graveside funeral will be held in the Garden of Eden Cemetery, Pictou
County, at a later date.
Donations in her memory may be made to the Orchard Valley
United Church, the Fundy Food Bank or the charity of one’s
choice. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to the White Family
Funeral Home and Cremation Services, Kentville. Online condolences and

“And He
walks with me, and He talks with me,
and He tells
me I am His own.”
Keep singing in Heaven
Mom.
