Obituary of Mary Rueasia Daniel

Mary Rueasia Daniel of Musquash passed away on Saturday, December 3, 2011, following a period of failing health. Mary was born at New Ross, Nova Scotia on June 7, 1913, a daughter of the late Robert Roy and Harriet (Lowe) Daniel. Mary worked at various jobs throughout her lifetime, and was the oldest resident of Musquash, having lived in the same area since she was six years old.

Mary was also an avid reader, and was the last surviving member of her immediate family. Mary was predeceased by her brothers and sisters, Bertha Penny, Helen Belmore, Sinclair Daniel, Charles Daniel, and Dorothy Cole. She is survived by several nieces and nephews; a great nephew and his wife; and by close friends and neighbours Pat and Bev McKinley of Musquash.
