Evelyn Mary LeBlanc

January 10, 1934 — September 4, 2024

Sydney

On September 4th our beautiful Mom Evelyn, passed away peacefully in her sleep at her residence at Harbourview Hospital in Sydney Mines. 

Mom was born in Marystown, Nfld on January 10th, 1934. Her family moved to Long Point in Cape Breton when she was a young child. In her early 20's she moved to Sydney where she worked at the London Grill on Charlotte Street. It was then that she met Stan, the love of her life. The 2 were married and were inseparable for over 60 years and had 2 children...a daughter Virginia (Ginny) and a son Henry.

Evelyn was a very dedicated full-time mom. Family came first to her and our home was always full of family and extended family and was a wonderful home to grow in. There was never a shortage of love and homecooked meals and memories that we will always cherish. Friday nights at our house was a regular gathering of Grandparents, Uncles, Aunts and Cousins filled with card games and Moms fried chicken and baked potatoes. Mom was an outstanding cook and she took great joy feeding anyone that entered our home.

When Stan retired, they moved from the family home to a senior’s apartment on Tillock drive where they continued their happy life with even more people for Mom to cook for! They remained there till Stan's passing in 2016. Shortly after his passing Mom began her battle with Dementia and became a resident at Harbourview in Sydney Mines. Harbourview staff became another part of Mom’s life, she loved the staff and they loved her in return. She resided there till her passing.

Evelyn was predeceased by her husband Stan, her parents Margaret and Maurice Power as well as 4 brothers Thomas, Ronald, Gordon and Walter and 2 sisters Dorothy and Marie. She is survived by her 2 children Ginny Hines (Todd) and Henry LeBlanc (Sheila), 4 grandchildren Ashley, Kyle, Brendan and Chelsea as well as 3 great grandchildren Cadence, Copeland and Lennon.

We will mourn the loss of our Mother and know that all that knew her will remember the beauty and love she brought to this world.

We love you Mom and know you are safely back in Dad's arms where you will watch over us together.

A Celebration of Mom's life will be held at a later date for family and close friends.
