It is with great sadness that the family of the late Reta Mae Watson Comeau announce her peaceful passing on Sept. 8, 2011, at Victoria County Memorial Hospital, Baddeck.
Born in Big Baddeck, she was the daughter of the late Francis and Annie (Carmichael) Asaph.

Her daily and nightly prayers included praying for the ones we know and also for the ones we don’t know and God is our refuge and strength in times of trouble. The Bible was a constant daily source of inspiration and comfort.
