She opened her home as a Foster Parent providing a safe environment for over 30 children and at risk youth for over a 15 year period. She was also known as “Mom” to many others.

She is survived by her children Stephen (Beth) of Spryfield, NS, James (Ann) of Dartmouth, NS, Barbara Degenstein, Christine (Girvan) Dunlop and Nancy (Steve) Boudreau all of Amherst, 9 grandchildren Jennifer, Laura, Brandon, Nick, Allie, Damian, Clare, Clarence and Natalie, sisters Gloria, Sylvia, Jeanne and Joan, brothers Bernard “Butch” and Larry and several nieces and nephews.
Visitation will be held on Wednesday, January 21, 2015 from 7 -9 p.m. in Campbell’s Funeral Home, 98 Church St., Amherst, NS. (902-667-9906)
