Eunice Florence
Sutherland
Apr 9, 1926 — Nov 29, 2024
River John
Sutherland (Langille), Eunice Florence
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Eunice, on November 29, 2024 in Willow Lodge, Tatamagouche. Born in River John on April 9, 1926, she was the daughter of the late Vernley and Florence (Dwyer) Langille. Eunice was a stay at home mom to her three sons. She sang in the church choir and was very active throughout her life in the Anglican Guild making many, many quilts. Her siblings often visited from Ontario in the summers and their house was the place to go for food, laughs and maybe a few drinks here and there. Mom loved to cook for her family and could stretch a meal to feed many and somehow still have leftovers. Her laugh was contagious and often echoed through her home.
She is survived by her three sons Gilbert, Greg (Paula) and Kevin (Darlene), six grandchildren, Sean (Roxanne), Jason (Pam), Jeremy, Adam (Liz), Shannon (Matt), Mandy (Thomas) and ten great grandchildren. Also survived by brothers Oak and Jack and the "daughter she never had", very good family friend Nancy Langille. She was predeceased by her beloved husband, Amel, of 64 years, sisters Dorothea, Effie, Myrna, Eleanor, Marjorie, and brothers Keith, Doug, Vern and Glen, and daughter-in-law, Ivy.
We can't thank the staff at Willow Lodge enough for their kindness and compassionate care of Mom for the eight years that she was a resident, and especially during her last few days. We will always be grateful to you. Donations may be made to Willow Lodge Recreation Department. Family flowers only, please. In keeping with her wishes, a private family Anglican committal service will be held in Hamilton's Cemetery, River John.
Arrangements are under the direction of Coulter's Funeral Home in Tatamagouche.
