    • Obituary:

      With sadness we announce the death of our mother, Sylvia Grace Blackie on May 2, 2020 at home after a brief period of failing health.

      She was the youngest of Earl and Eva McKinney, born September 26, 1929 on Benton Ridge NB.

      Our mother enjoyed baking, knitting socks, quilting, country music and dancing, reading,and especially wearing her flip flops, shopping and the Debec Tuesday quilters. Mother had a strong faith and loved her church.

      Our mother was predeceased by her parents, her husband Earle, two sons at birth, grandson Troy Grant, sisters Marion Veysey (Gerald) and Joyce Miller (Jim), brother- in-law Cam Fletcher, brother Joe McKinney and son-in-law Ronnie Grant.

      Our mother is survived by her daughters Janice (Reg) Anderson, Faye Grant and Alta (Michael) DeMerchant. Her grandchildren, Barry (Julie) Anderson, Craig (Bridget) Anderson, Todd (Trish) Grant, Tony (Stephanie) Grant, Suzanne Grant, Sheila (Barry) Bartlett, Joseph DeMerchant and Beckey DeMerchant (Jerry Johnston) as well as 15 great grandchildren , 1 great-great grandson and two sisters Phyllis Fletcher and Josephine Corey (Herby).

      We want to thank family, friends and neighbours for your caring support of our mother. Special thanks to Dr. Ramos and the Extra Mural nurses.

      For Mum

      It takes a special mom who understands the power of love to bring you up and guide you toward the things you are dreaming of…..

      It takes a special grandma who has smiles and hugs to share to make her family so much closer by just being there with out- stretched arms full of love.

      You were special and amazing to us.

      We love you Mum and Grandma!!! XOXO

      A Celebration of Life service for Sylvia will be held at Faye Grant 232 Oak Mountain Road Oak Mountain NB on Sunday, August 23, 2020 at 1 PM. Interment will be held in the Oak Mountain Cemetery.

      Some seating will be provided, but feel free to bring along your own chair.

      Due to COVID 19 social distancing is a requirement.

      As expressions of sympathy, donations to Debec United Church or to charity of donor’s choice would be appreciated by the family.
