Vera Isabel MacIntosh, of Trenton, passed away May 26, 2021 at the Aberdeen Hospital. Mom was born in Hillside on June 22, 1926. She survived breast cancer in 1997 and soon after, became part of the Women Alike. Mom was very proud to be part of this group and took great pride being out with the other paddlers. Mom loved to bake for any occasion. She was quite proud of her "Best Ever Cookies" plaque from the Friday Bowling League. Mom loved a good joke and listening to Sunday Country Gold from Antigonish, but most of all, she loved her grandsons, Tommy (Heidi), Brad (Lorena), and Al (Amanda); and her great grandchildren, Reed, Penny and Summer. Mom was predeceased by her father, Clarence Johnston; mother, Janetta Bell (MacLeod); her husband, Douglas Earle MacIntosh; daughter, Karen Anne MacIntosh; sisters, Mary and Nellie; brothers, William and James. Mom was the last surviving member of her family. She is survived by several nieces and nephews; her daughter, Bonnie (Tom) MacKenzie. Thank you to Mom’s "special neighbours", Donnie and Helen, Myrna, and Fergie and Miriam, for always checking in or leaving dinners and treats. Special thanks to those who looked after Mom on the 4th and 5th floors of the Aberdeen, and Crystal MacLean NP, Westside Clinic, for all your help. Cremation has taken place. In honour of Mom’s wishes, there will be no funeral or visitation. The immediate family will celebrate Mom’s life privately. If desired, donations may be made in Mom’s memory to the Pictou County Food Bank. Arrangements are under the direction of R.H. Porter Funeral Home.
