It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our dear mother, Lois Smith (nee Mason) on October 28th, 2015. Born March 6th, 1927 in Ponds, Merigomish, Nova Scotia, she is predeceased by her husband, Harry Fisher (Buzz) Smith (1999).
Lois leaves behind her children Kathryn, Donna (Arnie), Susan (Mike) and Jim (Karen); grandchildren Nikki, Courtney, Matt, Andrew, Sean, Taylor and great grandchildren Ryley, Madison, Colton and Carter. She worked as an R.N., training in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia and later working in Toronto, Ontario and Vancouver, B.C. for over 40 years. After retiring from nursing, she continued to volunteer in various hospital and church related charities for the next 20 years; her most recent, and a favourite, as a Meet and Greeter at 91原创 Memorial Hospital.
