She was predeceased by her parents, Catherine ‘Kay’ and William ‘Bill’ Delaney, as well as a special nephew, Cory MacAskill.
Connie was employed for 35 years with Revenue Canada, where she built many long lasting friendships. Also sharing this loss are the numerous nieces, nephews, great nieces and great nephews all of which Connie shared many special relationships. Not having any children of her own, they were her children. She facilitated birthday parties, organized Easter egg hunts and Christmas tree decorating at her house. She babysat, attended school concerts, proms and graduations with pride. She was there for everything, always there. There are no words to describe how much they will miss her.
Also saying goodbye to Connie is her super friend/sister by another mother, Dee Melong. Over the 30-plus years of friendship there were a ton of laughs, a few tears and no regrets. Added to this was about a million miles travelled.
Connie will also be sadly missed by her friend, Kelly Dawn. They shared a special relationship that will never leave Kelly’s heart. Connie was Kelly’s Nova Scotia mom.
Also feeling this loss will be the many neighbourhood children who were always welcomed at her door with a smile and a Freezie.
She was a selfless, caring individual who was there for anyone, whether it be family or friends. She was one who we called during the lowest of lows and the highest of highs. We will miss that contagious smile and infections laugh.
The family would like to thank the doctors and staff of the An Cala Unit, as well as the Cancer Unit of the Cape Breton Regional Hospital. Special thanks to Dr. Jensen, Dr. Sharieff, Dr. Mac Leod, Dr. Zemerli and Dr. D’Intino who graciously guided Connie throughout her journey. Connie referred to these people as, “her team”.
“Our family circle forever grows with every birth and every union. With every crisis faced together, this makes the circle stronger. No straight lines make up our lives and all our roads have bends, but one thing we can be sure of is that we will all be together again.” Forever missed and never forgotten.
Donations may be made to the Cape Breton Palliative Care Unit or charity of choice.
Cremation has taken place. Visitation will be held Wednesday, June 8, 2016 from 1-4 and 6-9 p.m. at the S.W. Chant & Son Funeral Home, 564 Alexandra St., Sydney.
