Obituary of Lillian Anne Heaney

Lillian Anne (Sadler) Heaney, age 86 of East Lawrencetown NS, passed away December 5th, 2019, at home.

 

Born in London, Ontario, she was a daughter of the late Margaret and Wilfred Sadler.

 

Beloved wife of Michael for almost 65 years, Anne raised her two children, Debra and Glenn and followed her husband around the world wherever the armed forces took him. Once Mike retired in Halifax, Nova Scotia, she enjoyed living by the ocean in East Lawrencetown with the birds and animals surrounding her. Always an animal lover, you never found her without a dog or cat. Anne will be missed dearly.

 

She is survived by her husband Michael Heaney; daughter Debra Heaney (Doug Crossland); son Glenn Heaney (Beverly); sister June Welch; grand children Ian Clarke, Stephanie Cameron (Cullen), Danielle Russell (Zak), and Jacqueline Heaney; great grandchildren Keegan and Catelynn Cameron and Guinevere and Evelyn Russell and several nieces and nephews.

 

A gathering of remembrance will be held on December 8th, 2019 between 2:00 and 5:00 at 251 Leslie Road, East Lawrencetown NS.

 

In lieu of flowers, donations in Lillian’s memory can be made to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada.

 

The family wishes to extend a special thanks to Shannon Purcell from Palliative Care, who assisted us so much along the way, as well as the VON and Home Care for all of their support.
