Gladys Bungay (nee Bullen) of Dartmouth, passed away peacefully at Saint Vincent Nursing Home in her 98th year on Monday, September 29, 2014.
Gladys was born in 1917 in Harbour Breton, Newfoundland. She and her two young children moved to Canada when her husband Reg joined the Canadian Navy in 1940. She and Reg operated Bungay's Grocery Store in North Dartmouth for many years and enjoyed the friendships the store brought them. They were both avid members of the Newfoundland and the Bullbird Clubs where they enjoyed dancing, cards and socializing with friends. They ran the card games for a number of years.
She is survived by her daughter, Nina (Bob) Webster of Brookfield, P.E.I.; sons, Gerald (Pat), Ottawa, and Kelvin (Reg) (Mary Lou), Moncton; nine grandchildren; numerous great-grandchildren; and one great-great-granddaughter.
Gladys was predeceased by her husband, Reg, of 63 years; parents, John and Esther (Parsons) Bullen; brothers, George, Ted, Hughie; and by her sisters, Kathryn, Sarah and Elizabeth.
Resting at the Atlantic Funeral Home, 771 Main Street, Dartmouth, N.S., where a private funeral for family and friends will take place on Friday, October 3 at 11 a.m. No visiting hours by request.
Donations in loving memory may be made to Saint Vincent's Nursing Home, 2080 Windsor Street, Halifax, where Mom received such wonderful care for the last 11 years.
Our family want to pay tribute to a dear friend Delia Lelievre who faithfully visited Mom twice a week over the years and took care of her personal needs. She and Mom played cribbage with passion.
