Sheila E. Leadbeater
Date de décès : 8 septembre 2018
It is with great sadness the family wish to announce the passing of Sheila E. Leadbeater on September 8, 2018 at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital surrounded by her loving family. Born in New Waterford on December 24, 1955 she was the daughter of the late Edward and Mary (MacMillan) Henry.
Mom always welcomed everyone with open arms, a cup of tea and a bite to eat. If the business in town served food, she worked there. She spent all her time putting everyone’s needs before her own and ended every conversation with “I love you”. She loved unconditionally and gave everything she had. She truly was the glue that held everything together.
Sheila is survived by the love of her life of 42 years, Duggie Leadbeater; daughter, Nadine (Nelson); sisters, Carol Ann (Gordie), Edwina (Duane) and Josie (Alex); grandchildren, Connor, Sawyer; honorary grandchild, Maddox, and many nieces and nephews
Besides her parents, Sheila is also predeceased by her son, Dean; brothers, Bernie, Neil; father and mother-in-law, John and Veronica.
Cremation has taken place and a Funeral Mass will be held on Wednesday, September 12 at 10 a.m. in the Parish of Saint Leonard, Mount Carmel Avenue, New Waterford with Father Ray Huntley officiating, followed by a luncheon to celebrate her life at the Army, Navy & Airforce, Smith St., and all are welcome. Funeral arrangements are under the direction of McLellan Brothers Funeral Home, 3183 Plummer Ave., New Waterford, 902-862-7500.
