Jean Marion MacLean
North Sydney
With heavy hearts we announce the passing of Jean Marion MacLean, age 93, on Monday, December 25, 2017.
Born in Kemptown, NS on May 9, 1924, Jean was the daughter of the late R. Ambrose Hingley and May (Cruickshank) Hingley.
Jean was a proud graduate of the nursing program at Aberdeen Hospital, New Glasgow, receiving the Gold Medal for highest aggregate (when she graduated in 1945). She nursed in various hospitals, including Veterans Hospital, Cornwallis, NS and Westminster Veterans Hospital, London, ON. Jean enjoyed her neighbours, her gardens, her church fellowship, and swimming, but she especially loved her family.
She is survived by daughter Candace (Wayne) Sarty, Sydney Forks and daughter-in-law Sharon MacLean, Picton, ON. She was extremely proud of her grandson, Bretton MacLean and her granddaughters, Kathryn (Pat) Shannon, Jennifer (Tristan) Rees Jones, and great granddaughter, Alexandra Rees Jones, all of Toronto, ON. She will also be missed by her “adopted” son, Colin (Ruth) MacDonald, Florence NS, as well as several nieces and nephews.
In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her husband, Clarence J. (Carnie) MacLean, son Kenneth James MacLean, an infant son, her brother Theodore Hingley, her sister Edith Hingley and brother-in-law Warren Hingley.
Her family would like to thank Dr. Doug Kohlsmith and each and every one of the incredible staff of Miners’ Memorial Manor, Sydney Mines.
Cremation has taken place. A service will be held at a later date. Funeral arrangements are under the care and direction of W.J. Dooley Funeral Home, 107 Pleasant Street, North Sydney.
Memorial donations may be made to St. Matthew Wesley United Church, North Sydney or to World Vision. Online condolences may be sent to www.wjdooley.com.
