Rose (Glencross) MacIntosh
June 25, 1877 – August 19, 1951

Smithfield – The death of Mrs. Rose MacIntosh,
formerly of Smithfield, Guys. Co.,
occurred at Aberdeen Hospital, New Glasgow
on August 19, after a short illness.

The former Rose Glencross, she was born at Smithfield,
but had lived in New Glasgow the past sixteen years
since the death of her husband the late Lewis MacIntosh.
A daughter (Marjie)(should read Mazie),
Mrs. James Williams and a son Weston also predeceased her.
She was 74 years old.

Mrs. MacIntosh will be greatly missed by her many friends
in New Glasgow and surrounding districts.
Her kind hospitality will long be remembered
by her friends while in her old home in Smithfield.

She was a member of the Presbyterian Church
and showed her Christian character by helping
and attending churches of all denominations.

She is survived by a son, Lawrence in Trenton;
Francis in Kentville; Lillian (Mrs. Harry Tate) Linacy;
and Sidney in Smithfield, fifteen grandchildren
and three great-grandchildren, a sister, Mrs. Olive Smith,
Smithfield, and a brother, Colin Glencross in B.C.

The funeral service was held from the home of her son Lawrence, Trenton,
followed by a service in her old home church
at Lower Caledonia. The services were conducted
by Rev. Mr. Raymer of the Pentecostal Church, New Glasgow,
assisted by James Thompson, Presbyterian student minister, Glenelg.
Mr. Raymer brought a comforting message to the bereaved,
choosing his text from the Twenty-Third Psalm.

Favorite hymns of the deceased were sung,
“All The Way My Saviour Leads Me,” Rock Of Ages.”
Mrs. Moore of New Glasgow sang “Beyond The Sunset”
at the home and Mrs. Thorne of New Glasgow sang
“The Old Rugged Cross” at the church service.

The pall-bearers were Harry Tate, George Petrie,
Leonard Knickel, Freeman Smith, Earl Smith and Edwin L. Smith.

Beautiful floral offerings and Bibles were presented in loving memory.

Interment was in the family plot in Upper Smithfield.
