Mary "Betty" Elizabeth MacLean

MACLEAN, Mary Elizabeth (Betty) - Suddenly, on Tuesday, September 25th 2018, Betty MacLean (nee Wingate) passed away at the age of 65.  The most important thing in Betty’s life was her family and friends.  Born on December 3, 1952 in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia, she was the eldest daughter of 10 children.  It was important to Betty to talk with her siblings, children and grandchildren every day, which is why we will all miss her so much.  She would say her biggest accomplishments were her children and grandchildren as she was so proud of them all.  Betty would love to see and spend time with her grandchildren.  She enjoyed travelling, hosting parties and going to the trailer. She will be sadly missed by her children Wayne (Sarah), Rae-Lynn (Shane), Joel (Krista) and Lu-ette (Ryan).  Adored Nana of Paetah, Jake, Acie, Lisa, Riley and Sadie.  Loving sister of Danny (Judy), Avian (John), Wendy (Stephen) all of Glace Bay, Nova Scotia, Winston of Ontario, Wendell (Julie) of Alberta, (Debbie), Wanda (Alphonse) all of Glace Bay, Nova Scotia and Kenny of Ontario.  Loving sister-in-law of Marilyn (Jimmy) of Eastern Passage, Nova Scotia and Jennett (Joe) of Donkin, Nova Scotia.  Also, survived by many nieces, nephews and cousins across Canada.  Betty will be missed by her best friends Anne & Stevie MacNeil of Sarnia, Ontario.
