There passed away at her home in Smithfield, Guys. Co.,
on December 26,
1941, MRS. GEORGE BROWN MacINTOSH,
formerly MARY JANE MacDONALD, daughter of
the late
Mr. and Mrs. HUGH MacDONALD of Lochaber, Antigonish County.
She was
in her 70th year and was always in good health up until a week
previous to
her death when she was stricken with a
paralytic stroke from which she never
gained consciousness.
Mrs. McIntosh was of a cheerful disposition and always
made welcome to
her home the many people who visited there.
She was a devoted wife and
mother and
a true friend to everyone. She was a member of
Glenelg
Presbyterian Church and a Life Member
of the Woman's Missionary Society.
In her immediate family she is survived by
her sorrowing husband and an
only daughter, JEAN.
Three sisters, MARGARET(Mrs. Cameron) of Iroquois
Falls, Ont.;
CHRISTY(Mrs. Lewis MacKenzie) of Port Coquitlam, B.C.;
LILLIAN(Mrs.Ezra Blanchard), Franklin, Mass., also survive.
Two sons
predeceased her a number of years ago.
The funeral was held on Sunday afternoon, Dec. 28, at 2 o;clock
from the
home. The esteem in which Mrs. McIntosh was held
was shown by the largely
attended funeral. Rev.J.W. Bretton of Sherbrooke
Presbyterian Church
conducted the service and brought a comforting message
to the bereaved. His
text was from Psalm 116:
" Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of
his saints."
The choirs of the Glenelg United and Presbyterian Churches sang
three favorite selections:
"The Lord's My Shepherd". "looking This Way" and
"does Jesus care".
Interment was made in the family plot in Evergreen Cemetery, Aspen.
