Florence McFarlane
1939-2017
It is with great sadness that the family of Florence Grace
McFarlane (nee McIntosh), age 78, of Ratter Corner, NB, announces her
passing which occurred on Monday, November 6, 2017 at the Jordan
Lifecare Centre, NB. She was born in Hillsdale, NB, on March
20, 1939, a daughter of the late Harold and Bernice (McDonald)
McIntosh.
Florence boarded out to go to school and made many friends
along the way, especially the Friars and Tabor families. She was the
best mother anyone could ask for, kind, caring and loving. She always
put everyone before herself. Florence was a hard worker and could do
anything she put her mind to. She worked out cleaning homes and
cooking at the Friars and Bluebird Restaurants. She would also work on
the farm with Clarence and the girls. She was the best cook and always
enjoyed being in the kitchen. Knitting and sewing were also among the
things she loved to do with her spare time. Florence and Clarence were
always there to help each other, married 56 years, you could always
find them working together side by side. She was a past member of the
Orange Lodge for many years.
Florence is survived by her loving husband Clarence
McFarlane; daughters: Lynn Smith (Dwayne), Lorraine Lucas (Shawn) and
Lorna McFarlane (Thomas Armstrong); grandchildren: Parker Smith,
Hayley Lucas (Srdjan Bunjy) and Colton Lucas; great grandson Hunter
Smith; sister June Stafford of Stillwater, ME; brothers: Frank Spence
(Mabel) of New Horton, NB and William James Maxwell of ON; as well as
several nieces and nephews. Besides her parents, Florence was
predeceased by her son Ivan; brother Wesley; step fathers: James
Maxwell and Gilford Harris; and grandparents Beverly and Miriam (nee
Norman) McDonald who raised her from a young age.
