MACCULLOCH, Dorothy Violet – It is with great sadness that we, the family, announce Mom’s passing at Hospice House, Merrimack, New Hampshire, on Friday, April 19th in her 101st year with her family by her side.

Born in New Glasgow, NS, “Nana Mac” was the daughter of the late John A. and Rena (Stewart) MacMillan. She taught school in Meiklefield and Blue Mountain before her marriage. The family moved from Blue Mountain to New Glasgow and then to Massachusetts 50 years ago.

She is survived by her sons William (Anne), New Glasgow, David (Kathy), Londonderry, New Hampshire, Bradley, Hudson, Massachusetts and Kendall, Boston, Massachusetts. She is also survived by daughter-in-law Carol MacCulloch, seven grandchildren, eleven great grandchildren and many nieces and nephews and cousins.

Mom was very involved in her church community in Hudson, MA including a turn in the handbell choir and Bible Study groups. She worked for Digital Equipment Corporation until just before her 80th birthday. Her favourite pastimes during her retirement included reading, knitting, working in her flower garden which was an outstanding display at her home, first in Gleasondale and later in Hudson and doing the daily crossword puzzles.

Besides her parents, she was predeceased by her husband C. Edgar, son Glenn and sister Christine Maynard.

There will be a visitation to celebrate Mom’s life at the Angus Funeral Home, New Glasgow on Wednesday, April 24th from 2-4 and 7-9. The Funeral Service will be held at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, New Glasgow on Thursday, April 25th at 11:00 am with interment following at Heatherdale Memorial Gardens.

Donations in her memory may be made to St. Andrew’s Sustainability Fund, Knox Presbyterian Church, Blue Mountain, or a charity of choice.
