It is with profound sadness that the family of Jacqueline Roberts Carter (nee Cull) announce her passing, early in the evening, January 5th, 2008. Born October 6th, 1921 in Port-Aux-Basques, Newfoundland, she would go on to touch the lives of many people, primarily as a Registered Nurse. Earning her RN in St. John’s, Nfld during the Second World War, she took her role as a healer seriously and tended to nearly all of her immediate and extended family members over the years as not only nurse, but as sister, mother, wife, grandmother and great-grandmother. After moving to Nova Scotia, from Corner Brook, in 1971, she made close friends quickly. She was a duty nurse at the campus clinic at Acadia University in Wolfville, until her retirement in 1986. She had friends of all ages during this period. Her ability to connect with, not only people her own age, but with the many students she tended to, was a significant source of pride for her family. She was so many things to so many people allowing those around her to learn from that. When she was not tending to patients, she could be found playing Bridge, making one, or several, of her famous cherry cakes, watching a Deanna Durbin movie, or offering her definitive opinion on various current affairs and the state of the universe. She also contributed years of enthusiastic service to the Girl Guides of Canada. She was, however, above all, dedicated to the children in her life. Grandchildren never got old and there was always someone who needed to “gargle with warm salt water” until she could get to them and “have a look” at a sore throat. For these things and so much more we will be forever grateful. She is survived by sisters, Vera (Etobicoke), Theodora, (Corner Brook) and Shirley (Toronto), her three children, John (Linda) Halifax, Margaret (David) Mississauga and Peter (Charlotta) Toronto, special daughter-in-law Pam Carter and by her six grandchildren, Bob, Wendy, Terri, James, Emma and Pierre and two great-grandchildren, Elizabeth and Daniel. She was predeceased by her brother John (Jack) killed in action, WWII, her parents, John and Amelia Cull, sisters, Molly, Marguerite (Babs) and Sylvia and husband, Henry. Visitation will take place at Snow’s Funeral Home, Windsor Street, Halifax, Sunday, January 13th, 6-8 p.m. and funeral service to take place Monday, January 14th, 2 p.m. at St. Augustine’s Anglican Church, Purcell’s Cove Road, Halifax. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimer’s Society of Canada or St. Augustine’s Anglican Church. Email condolences: condolences.snow@ns.aliantzinc.ca.
