Elda Virginia Hunt (nee MacKay), was born on June 9, 1926 in Port Howe, Nova Scotia.
Elda greatly enjoyed travelling to many parts of Canada, U.S.A and Europe in her later years with Wayne and Adele. Mom peacefully departed on her final trip on August 18, 2014. We will miss her infectious laughter, her mischievous smiles and hugging “Grammy” at family gatherings.
Mom will be lovingly remembered by sisters, brothers and their families from British Columbia, Ontario, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia; daughter-in-law Adele of Calgary; as well as many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. My beloved and courageous mom-in-law was predeceased by her parents Maude and John MacKay; brothers Horace and Calvin; her husband Stewart; and sons Laird and Wayne.
Many thanks to the staff at Intercare Southwood Care Centre as well as the staff at Southwood Hospice for their loving care.
