It is with a heavy heart that I announce the passing of my mother Earlene on Saturday, Jan. 17, 2015, at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital, Sydney, surrounded by her loving family.
Born in Sydney, she was the daughter of the late Earl and Louise (Gosse) Head.
Mom was a devoted and loving mother, grandmother, daughter, sister and aunt, and was loved by all who knew her.
Mom devoted her life to taking care of her family and others. She enjoyed family gatherings especially Christmas.
Earlene is survived by her daughter, Laura Deveaux (Dale); grandchildren, Brittany, Christopher and Cole. She is also survived by her sisters, Debbie (Brian) Edwards, Sydney, Nancy (Darren) Bert, Eastern Passage, Karen ((Francis) MacDonald, Boisdale; brothers, Adam (Sheila), N.L., Ronnie (Noreen), Manitoba, Stephen, Sydney, and David Dartmouth, as well as many nieces and nephews.
Besides her parents, mom was predeceased by her beloved nephew, Andrew Edwards.
As per mom’s request there will be no visitation. A funeral service will be 11 a.m. Thursday, Jan. 22, 2015, at the S.W. Chant & Son Funeral Home Chapel with Majors Kent and Dena Hepditch officiating. There will be a reception to follow.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Cape Breton Special Olympics or a charity of choice.
