It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of a dear mother, grandmother and sister, Pauline Elizabeth MacKenzie, of Sydney and Baddeck.
Born in McAdam, New Brunswick, in 1923, Pauline was the daughter of Alexander 'Sandy' and Emma Rosborough.
Following the completion of teacher training in Home Economics, Pauline taught on Grand Manan Island, where she met her future husband, Dr. Douglas H. MacKenzie. With the completion of Doug’s medical studies at the Lahey Clinic in Boston, they returned to Cape Breton and resided in Sydney. Pauline raised her five children and enjoyed gardening and antique collecting. For the last number of years, Pauline and Doug spent the winters in Florida and their summers in Baddeck.
Pauline is survived by her children, Stephen, Bill, Ann, Bruce and Joan; her grandchildren, Julia and Zosia; and her brother, Colin Rosborough.
She was predeceased by her husband, Dr. Douglas H. MacKenzie in 2012.
There will be no visitation. A memorial service will be held in the summer of 2014.
