Florence was a graduate of the Victoria General School of Nursing. It was during this period she met her beloved future husband, Campbell, who was training for his overseas service. Courageously facing many obstacles in her life, Florence treasured her family and friends with her generosity, warm smile and loving kindness.

Predeceased by her husband, Campbell; brothers, Henry, Sam and Alfred MacMaster and sister Elizabeth MacKenzie.
Florence’s life will be celebrated in St. James’ United Church in Antigonish on Friday, June 24, at 2 p.m., with Rev. Peter Smith presiding. A reception will follow.
In lieu of flowers, a donation to a charity of choice would be appreciated.
The family would like to express their deepest gratitude to the staff of St. Martha’s Hospital for their kind, professional care for Florence in her time of need. A special thanks to Patricia Allan, her doctor and friend.
